Built for licensed Houston commercial mechanical contractors
Wrong jurisdiction, unclear scope, missing documents or incomplete drawings can trigger comments before your crew ever gets close to install.
Many commercial RTU and package-unit jobs need energy compliance documentation. One mismatch between AHRI, cut sheets and scope can slow the review.
Your project managers should not spend billable hours chasing packet fixes, portal updates and plan-check comments for repeatable HVAC jobs.
FlashPermit is built around the paperwork problems that slow down routine commercial HVAC jobs: RTU swaps, package-unit replacements, standard commercial mechanical work and jobs needing COMcheck or AHRI alignment.
Check Your Job Before SubmissionAHRI mismatch between the certificate, model numbers, efficiency ratings or submitted equipment schedule.
Missing or incomplete COMcheck where energy compliance documentation is required for the job scope.
Wrong jurisdiction route — City of Houston iPermits versus Harris County or another AHJ process.
Unclear scope — like-for-like replacement, new install, curb adapter, structural impact or tenant improvement.
Missing support documents such as cut sheets, drawings, engineering letters or contractor registration details.
Houston-area commercial HVAC jobs do not all follow the same path. We check the address, scope and jurisdiction so the permit packet is prepared for the correct local process.
For City of Houston jobs, we prepare the commercial mechanical packet, align AHRI and COMcheck where applicable, submit through iPermits and manage plan-check comments.
For Harris County or nearby jurisdiction work, we help identify the correct route, required documents and review path before your team loses time submitting the wrong packet.
Send the job address, scope, AHRI certificate and cut sheet. We will help confirm whether it looks like a City of Houston iPermits job, Harris County/other AHJ route, straightforward RTU swap, standard commercial mechanical packet or curb/engineering case.
Start the full intake or ask us to check the job first. Share the address, scope, AHRI certificate, cut sheets and contractor details.
We confirm whether the job is a like-for-like swap, standard commercial mechanical packet, COMcheck case or curb/engineering coordination job.
We align AHRI, cut sheets, COMcheck where applicable, drawings and support documents into a cleaner jurisdiction-ready packet.
We submit through the right local route, manage plan-check comments or resubmissions, and keep your PM updated through the process.
