    Has anyone from this group been involved in the creation of the new NFPA 150 

    Fire and Life Safety in Animal Housing Facilities Code

    This appears to be a selective cut and paste of NFPA 99 Chapter 5


    There are a few items missing that give me concern (Limited system verification tests, and no mention of what joining method is to be used for joining the gas system tubing)

    The short answer is YES !


    At the annual meeting of the Medical GAS PROFFESSIONAL HEALTHCARE ORG.

    in Las Vagas Feb 10&11, 2025.


    MGPHO Past President Keith Ferrari, stated this information to the group.


    Please also note, NFPA 99 Code does list items for fire protection in HBO Veterinarian Centers this is in Chapter #14 of the 99. 


    NOW ALSO PLEASE REVIEW THE: (drumroll)


    The 2018 INTERNATIONAL FIRE CODE 2018 EDITION

    SECTION #5306 / PARTS #5306.1 to #5.206.5


    Our NFPA 99 Code Book - is listed as the document

    for the installation of Medical Gas Systems.


    (sorry - i could not find a way to cut and paste):
