I am talking to Orange Beach. However, I want to know the TRUTH regardless of what TP requires. He is hung up on the "required level of protection" statement. Where do we define this level?
If it is an AHJ call then I understand. If it is written then we have a discussion point.

Wingard, CET Triple "A" Fire Protection, Inc. 251.649.2034 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg McGahan Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2007 1:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: bathrooms in 13 residential NFPA #13 2007 edition A.3.3.2 Bathroom. A room is still considered a bathroom if it contains just a toilet. Additionally, two bathrooms can be adjacent to each other and are considered separate rooms, provided they are enclosed with the required level of construction. I have an AHJ that is stating that this excerpt from NFPA #13 is requiring a toilet room to have 20 minute walls to be considered a separate room with a UL listed door. Has anyone researched this? Is this the intent in 13?
