No, in most municipalities, you do not need a building permit to install a ToddPod. Because our enclosures are modular and freestanding rather than permanent structural additions, they typically bypass complex local zoning laws and expensive permit requirements.
Building Codes – The ToddPod is exempt from building codes because it is a modular structure attached to the ground surface.
Zoning Codes – We are not a permanent structure and the unit is less than 100 SQ. FT.
Plumbing Codes – Exempt from plumbing codes with our Shower Valve Trim Set. This is classified as a rinse station.
No you do not. The ToddPod units are free standing and secure to the ground surface only.
