DC Department of Buildings permit MVQ2600076: issued Jul 2, 2026 for other work at 1432 Whittier St NW. Section R1001.7,1 Request to permit Installation of a listed top-sealing (lock-top) damper in lieu of a throat damper at the fireplace throat. A lister lock-top damper has been installed at the top of the chimney in place of a traditional throat damper. This configuration is requested as an approved equivalent because a throat damper at the fireplace opening would restrict proper access to the smoke chamber for hand parging and would interfere with proper Chimney cleaning and maintenance.

Type of work and status are our own standard labels, so permits compare across cities. The city's wording is in the "City's category" and "City's status" rows. We show costs under $100 as not listed, because filers often enter $0 or $1 when the city doesn't require a cost.
