NEW – ON: TSSA grants CPA request to extend 10-year inspection requirements
The Technical Standard and Safety Authority (TSSA) has temporarily revised section 18 of O. Reg. 211/01 which states that comprehensive inspections must be conducted every 10 years. However, after consultation with the CPA, the TSSA is now allowing these inspections to be delayed until Dec. 31, 2022.
Retailers are asked to continue to work with homeowners and customers and abide by COVID-19 safety protocols. They are encouraged to convey the importance of inspections to ensure they continue to be carried out, thereby preventing the inspection backlog from growing unsustainably.
