LeRoy Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 128 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 128-40
Air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation in one- and two-family dwellings
Operative Text
In one- and two-family dwellings, exhaust air from a dwelling unit shall not be circulated to another dwelling unit. Air-conditioning and ventilating ducts shall be securely fastened in place and appropriately fire-stopped.
Under LeRoy Village Code ch. 128 § 128-40, exhaust air from one dwelling unit in a one- or two-family home must not be routed into another dwelling unit. Additionally, all air-conditioning and ventilating ducts must be firmly secured and properly fire-stopped to meet safety standards. This rule addresses both air-quality separation between units and the structural integrity of duct installations.

Operators of one- and two-family dwellings in LeRoy Village should ensure that their HVAC and ventilation systems are designed and maintained so that exhaust air from one unit cannot migrate into another, as required by ch. 128 § 128-40. Ductwork throughout the property should be inspected to confirm it is securely fastened and that fire-stopping materials are correctly installed at required locations. Routine maintenance records and contractor documentation can help demonstrate ongoing compliance with these mechanical standards.

LeRoy Village Code ch. 128 § 128-40 establishes that tenants in one- and two-family dwellings have a right to air that has not been recirculated from a neighboring unit, and that ductwork in their building must be safely secured and fire-stopped. If a tenant suspects that exhaust air is crossing between units or that ductwork appears loose or improperly installed, they may consider contacting the local code enforcement or building department to request an inspection. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with local housing codes can also help residents understand what options are generally available when mechanical ventilation standards may not be met.
