When considering a new project – home, commercial or other type of construction – do check with your local fire department.

For example, if your property is located in a particular fire zone, which is determined by the fire department, types of construction can be required that will conform to their standards.This could affect framing, roofing, the type of glass in windows, road construction, access to property and, of course, use of fire sprinklers.

Your local fire jurisdiction could have other, far-reaching effects on your project, so check with with your local fire department agency to avoid unpleasant surprises.
