October 5, 2005 - ICC Adds Residential Sprinkler Requirements to Appendix

Wednesday, October 5, 2005, Patterson, New York – The National Fire Sprinkler Association (NFSA) is pleased to report that history was made at the 2005 International Code Council (ICC) Final Action Hearing in Detroit, Michigan, when the ICC voting membership voted to place fire sprinkler systems in all new one- and two-family dwellings and townhouses by placing the requirement in the Appendix of the International Residential Code (IRC). The voting members had to overturn the IRC committee, who previously denied the code change. An appendix in the IRC is only enforceable if a local jurisdiction adopts the new appendix requirements. The new appendix will be included in the 2006 edition of the IRC.
