Minnesota ha...... 70F, Ocean Breeze and Sunny here in coastal New Jersey John Drucker -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chris Cahill Sent: Tuesday, April 03, 2007 3:11 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Elevator Inspectors vs. Piping Installation per NFPA Not snowing here in the MN tropics, or more accurate it is snowing but it's not sticking, yet. Of course IMHO no snow is BAD news. Check MN State Fire Code IFC 903.3.1.6.2 Sprinklers SHALL NOT be installed in elv. shafts, pits or machine rooms. The key is you are in violation of the LAW if you put them in or the EOR requires them. Hey Drucker, et.al. EOR hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, few and far between in these parts! In MN the AHJ (of what ever stripe including the FM) can't require them by another law (299m, 16b), even by local ordinance. But all this isn't effective until May, 31st I believe. So today you have to do them, June you are not allowed. P.S. you better get a hold of the new MN Fire code there are a lot of things you will want to know about. I know Dan K. sent your office a copy of the changes via email a few months ago. Chris Cahill, P.E.

(and the elev. Mech. Room if memory serves me correctly) ... So I posed the q'. Anybody else in MN heard the same? Still snowing...
