The State of Connecticut adopted a new fire safety code last October. The use 
the 2010 edition of NFPA 13. A question came up from a client regarding 
antifreeze. After researching and email discussions with the State Fire 
Marshal's Office, I found out that CT still allows antifreeze systems to be 
installed based on the old requirements. Most jurisdictions that I am aware of 
have either adopted 2013 or 2016, or have amended their Codes to prevent new 
antifreeze system until a listed solution arrives. How many other jurisdictions 
still allow these systems based on the old requirements?
