Residential Sprinkler Systems
06/08/2010
PA adopted the 2009 edition of the International Residential Code (IRC) on December 31, 2009. One of the most significant additions to the 2009 IRC is the requirement to install residential sprinkler systems within newly constructed townhomes by 2010 and one and two family homes by 2011.
The new residential sprinkler requirements are added to the 2009 IRC in order to protect life, unlike commercial systems which are designed to reduce property damage. The proposed residential sprinkler systems are intended to control fire growth long enough to allow for people to escape a burning building and/or to allow fire fighters to perform rescue operations.
Please visit the PA Department of State's website for detailed information on the 2009 IRC Code.
