Fire Extinguishers in an ANSI Park Model

Post by sinter4911 » Wed Oct 05, 2011 8:44 am

Does an ANSI (Under 400 Sq.FT.) Park Model have to have a fire extinguisher put in by the Manufacturer?

Thank you for your Replies.

I did contact the RPTIA and they said any Park Model home built by the ANSI Building Code must have a Fire Extinquisher installed by the Manufacturer. They also faxed me a copy of the page from their code book showing it.

Thanks Again
