James Schock, St. Johns County Board of County Commissioners (the “Petitioner”); The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published October 25, 2015 in Vol. 41, No. 165 of the Florida Administrative Register.
The Petition asks what license is required to install and inspect sprinklers that are constructed under the Florida Building Code-Residential plumbing section P2904.
The Petition answers: Pursuant to section 633.224(1), Florida Statutes, a currently certified Contractor I, Contractor II, or Contractor IV may engage in the business or act in the capacity of a contractor of automatic fire sprinkler systems for one-family dwellings, two-family dwellings, and mobile homes. It is unlawful for any other person to engage in such business.
-
Phillip Green (the “Petitioner”); The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published October 20, 2015 in Vol. 41, No. 162 of the Florida Administrative Register.
The Petition asks whether section 633.124(2)(a), Florida Statutes, applies to fire sprinkler systems installed in one and two family dwellings based on a local government requirement in accordance with 633.208, Florida Statutes.
The Petition was answered: The requirement to maintain an operable fire protection system only applies to those systems in locations which are mandated by statutes and rules, pursuant to section 633.124(2)(a), Florida Statutes. One and two family dwellings do not fall within these requirements as there are no statutes and rules requiring such systems be installed in one and two family dwellings pursuant to section 633.208(8), Florida Statutes. If a local government enacts such an ordinance, and the homeowner of a one or two family dwelling disables the fire protection system, the homeowner could not be charged with a first degree misdemeanor pursuant to section 633.124(2)(a).
