What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
HVAC and fuel-burning equipment work in Belleville is licensed under Chapter 153, the city's Gas, Oil and Solid Fuel Burner Code, and administered by the Office of the Gas, Oil and Solid Fuel Burner Inspector. Registering a burner contractor's business is conditioned on a $10,000 surety bond that stands behind the contractor's compliance with the code and the quality of the installation work performed.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Belleville (the obligee), which the bond indemnifies against a registered contractor's failure to observe the chapter's ordinances and rules, or negligence in performing burner work. If that happens, the city can make a claim against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond needs to stay active for as long as you hold an active burner contractor registration with the city, so file it before you register rather than after the inspector's office asks for it.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $10,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Burner Inspector. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your burner contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $10,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
