Kentucky has required heating and air conditioning contractors to be licensed by the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction since 1995. A master HVAC contractor license is the credential for the business, under KRS 198B.658. Lexington-Fayette also registers contractors with Building Inspection, and an unregistered contractor cannot pull a city permit. Look the state license up, then ask who will pull the Lexington permit.
