Chapter 447 — Plumbing; Architectural Barriers

ORS 447.065 Solar heating and cooling systems

(1)

Notwithstanding ORS 447.020, a person may not engage in the trade of installing solar heating and cooling systems unless the person possesses either a license as a journeyman plumber issued under ORS chapter 693 or a solar heating and cooling system installer license issued by the State Plumbing Board under ORS 693.111.

(2)

A license issued under ORS 693.111 does not authorize a person to connect a solar heating and cooling system to a potable water source. The connection of a solar heating and cooling system to a potable water source must be made only by a journeyman plumber licensed under ORS chapter 693.

Note: 447.065 was enacted into law by the Legislative Assembly but was not added to or made a part of ORS chapter 447 or any series therein by legislative action. See Preface to Oregon Revised Statutes for further explanation.

Note: Penalties for violations of 447.065 are set forth in 693.994.
