Rule 24.301.371 - PLUMBING INSPECTIONS
(1) Cover (rough-in) inspections are made by a state plumbing inspector wherever possible. Insulation and wallboard shall not be applied prior to inspection unless 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, have expired after the plumbing installation is complete and notice to inspect has been received.
(2) The permit holder shall be responsible for assuring that plumbing work is not covered before the department has granted permission to cover said work. The inspection shall be made during daylight hours unless it is more convenient to all parties involved to make the inspection at night.
(3) Upon completion of the final inspection and approval of the plumbing work, the department shall, if requested, issue the permit holder a certificate of compliance.
(4) If the inspection reveals code violations, the permit holder shall be given an opportunity to make corrections. If after reinspection the violation has been corrected, the permit holder shall be issued a certificate of compliance. If such violation is not corrected, the permit holder or other responsible persons will be charged as per 50-60-110, MCA.
(5) Plumbing inspectors shall not inspect any plumbing work in which they have any financial or personal interest, or which they have installed or repaired.
