Local Law 152 Gas Piping Inspections in NYC.

Local Law 152 (LL152) was enacted in 2016 to improve gas line safety and reduce the risk of leaks and explosions in New York City buildings.  Local Law 152 requires all buildings in NYC, except those classified in occupancy group R-3, to undergo gas piping system inspections every four years. These inspections must be completed by a Licensed Master Plumber (LMP) or a qualified technician supervised by an LMP.

LL152 Inspection Schedule.

Refer to the LL 152 schedule for 2026 below to determine when your building’s inspection is due:

  • January 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025: Buildings in Community Districts 2, 5, 7, 13, 18
  • January 1, 2026 – December 31, 2026: Buildings in Community Districts 4, 6, 8, 9, 16
  • January 1, 2027 – December 31, 2027: Buildings in Community Districts 11, 12, 14, 15, 17
  • January 1, 2028 – December 31, 2028: Buildings in Community Districts 1, 3, 10

To stay compliant with LL152, it’s best to schedule your inspection early.

Stay Warm. Stay Safe. Stay Compliant.

Under LL152, compliance inspections must cover all exposed gas piping from the building’s point of entry to the gas meter and extend through public spaces, including hallways, corridors, boiler rooms, and mechanical rooms. Inspections do not include gas piping inside tenant units.

If your building does not contain a gas piping system, you’re still required to file a certification from a registered design professional stating there is no gas piping system present. This certification follows the same Local Law 152 inspection schedule.

Energo’s in-house LMPs will assess your building for:

  • Gas leaks and carbon monoxide hazards
  • Piping deterioration or corrosion
  • Immediate fire or explosion risks

You’ll receive a Gas Piping System Inspection Report within 30 days of the inspection, detailing any required repairs and conditions found. If any dangerous conditions are found, Energo will take swift action.

The report must be filed with the New York City Department of Buildings (DOB) within 60 days. Missing this deadline can result in a $10,000 fine, with an additional $10,000 added each year of noncompliance.

    Gus

    The service mechanic came to service my boiler and noticed the water heater leaking. He diagnosed the problem right away and told us that the water heater needed to be replaced (it was 20 yrs old). Gus, in the office, was very helpful and two days later, we had a new tank installed. Fast, clean and reliable. The mechanics did an amazing job! What else can you ask for! Thank you so much Energo and thank you for always being there!!!
