The SDCI mechanical permit takes in new heating and venting equipment; gas lines are excluded, and those need a separate permit. Simple jobs can be issued as a subject-to-field-inspection (STFI) mechanical permit within 24 hours, most others take about nine weeks, and a permit is valid for 18 months. SDCI's furnace FAQ says any furnace replacement or alteration needs a permit and that homeowners may apply for furnace or mechanical STFI permits themselves. None of the SDCI pages opened names wood stoves or fireplace inserts explicitly.
