Oregon Water Heater Requirements & Code Compliance
Ensure your water heater meets the Oregon Plumbing Specialty Code (OPSC), Oregon Residential Specialty Code, 2025 Oregon Energy Efficiency Specialty Code (OEESC) (based on ASHRAE 90.1-2022), seismic provisions, and local amendments for safe, legal installations across Oregon.
Key Oregon Requirements at a Glance:
- Seismic Bracing – Water heaters must be anchored or strapped to resist earthquake motion (straps in upper 1/3 and lower 1/3 of height, lower strap ≥4 inches above controls). Required in Seismic Design Categories C, D, E, F; exemptions may apply in lower-risk B/C for one- and two-family dwellings.
- Location Rules – Fuel-burning (gas) units prohibited in bedrooms, bathrooms, or their closets unless direct-vent/sealed combustion with outdoor air. In garages: Ignition source ≥18 inches above floor. Attics/floors: Watertight corrosion-resistant pan with drain required if leak could cause damage.
- Venting & Safety – Proper approved venting to outdoors for gas units to prevent CO buildup. TPR (temperature/pressure relief) valve required with discharge pipe (full size, no traps/valves, to approved location like outside/drain, 6–24 inches above floor/ground). Expansion tank often needed for closed systems.
- Energy Efficiency (OEESC/Title Equivalent) – Meet minimum UEF ratings; high-efficiency options (e.g., heat pump water heaters ≥3.45 UEF or gas ≥0.90 UEF) incentivized or required for credits in new builds/additions. Drain-water heat recovery may qualify for extra measures.
- Permits & Inspections – Plumbing permit required for installations/replacements (handled by local jurisdictions like Portland, Bend, or statewide via BCD). Inspections ensure compliance; licensed professionals recommended.
- Other Notes – Low-NOx emissions encouraged (no strict statewide zero-NOx mandate like some areas); follow manufacturer instructions and local rules.
We handle full code-compliant Oregon water heater installation, repair, and replacement—including permits, seismic strapping, proper venting, and energy-efficient options like tankless or heat pumps—so you stay safe, legal, and worry-free.
