Heating and cooling in Longview
A single combined row in Longview's Development Services Fee Schedule 2025-2026 covers the building permit for mechanical, electrical, plumbing, gas and irrigation work: $80.00 residential and $105.00 commercial. The schedule is headed 2025-2026, and the new codes took effect July 1, 2026, so ask whether there's a 2026-2027 update that's replaced it. These codes became effective July 1, 2026, according to the Building Inspection page: the 2021 IMC and International Fuel Gas Code, the 2015 IECC (marked no change recommended) and the 2026 NEC.
The 2021 IRC and 2021 IEBC are shown as proposed amendments. The set followed before that was the 2012 I-codes with the 2015 IECC and the 2017 NEC. At 410 S.

Permits for heating and cooling work in Longview
Texas cities issue the permit for replacing a furnace, air conditioner or heat pump, and each city sets its own fee; the ones cited on our Texas page all require one. TDLR licenses the air conditioning and refrigeration contractor, so ask for that license number as well as what your city's permit office needs.
