Babylon Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 199 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 199-42
Heating of garages
Operative Text
Fuel-burning equipment for garages servicing multiple dwellings shall be located in heater rooms, and equipment burning gas or liquid fuel shall not be located in the vehicle storage space.
Under Babylon Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 199 § 199-42, any fuel-burning heating equipment installed in garages that serve multiple-dwelling buildings must be placed in a dedicated heater room. Equipment that burns gas or liquid fuel is specifically prohibited from being located in the same space where vehicles are stored. This rule is designed to separate combustion equipment from vehicle traffic areas in shared residential garage settings.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of multi-dwelling properties in Babylon Village should be aware that § 199-42 requires fuel-burning garage heating equipment to be housed in a designated heater room, separate from the vehicle storage area. Gas- and liquid-fuel-burning equipment in particular must never be installed or left operating within the vehicle storage space itself. Compliant property managers typically ensure that any garage heating systems are reviewed for proper placement before installation and during routine inspections.

Residents of multi-dwelling buildings in Babylon Village who share a garage may have an interest in whether § 199-42 is being followed, as it governs the safe placement of fuel-burning heating equipment in those spaces. If fuel-burning or gas/liquid-fuel equipment appears to be located within the vehicle storage area rather than a separate heater room, tenants can document the condition and report it to the appropriate local code enforcement or building department. Tenant-rights organizations can also help residents understand what options are generally available when a potential code violation is identified.
