every fd also uses vhf channels also - but maybe they wont work in buildings asheville nc area ================ North Carolina Fire Code requires that emergency responder’s radio systems be fully operable in the interior of most new buildings. Some modern energy-efficient construction techniques and materials (such as Low – E glass, cementitious coatings and steel roofs) tend to attenuate the radio signals penetrating the exterior of some new buildings. Per North Carolina 2018 Fire Code Section 510, all new buildings constructed in Buncombe County after January 1, 2019 ( except for one and two family residences) are required to ensure that the Buncombe County Public Safety Radio System has sufficient radio signal strength to be fully operable throughout the interior of the building. New building owners subject to the 2018 North Carolina Fire Code section 510 are required to submit a Radio Signal Strength Study that demonstrates that the existing Buncombe County Radio System signal levels meet the code requirements or they will be required to install an Emergency Responder Radio Coverage System (ERRCS) to boost the radio signals up to the required levels. All owners of new buildings, as well as their general contractors and ERRCS vendors/installers, should be familiar with all provisions of the relevant codes. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
