¿Is a sprinkler a fire extinguisher?
Damn guys, I bread crumbed the SHIT out of that trail...
And STILL, nothing to even generally change my mind...

No

That's a code for new homes built

A sprinkler is meant to extinguish fires
And if you're not going to count it, you're still on the hook for a source

Like cars after 1965 are required to have seatbelts

I do not need extinguishers in my home

Cars *built* after 1965

Great, ¿what magical state is this?

You're trying to do this 4D chess shit but it's not working. You're just looking foolish

California

Theres no sprinklers in my home

I have those red fire extinguishers but I dont know of any law that requires I own them

Or get them checked every year

Like there is at my place of employment

Their extinguishers are checked annually

By the fire dept

I haven't read everything yall said cause I'm at work but it sounds like only 2 states even require sprinklers in new homes?

And cali is one

But that's NEW homes

That's the building code

Yup

Like your NEW homes also require studs a certain number of inches apart and proper sewage systems

Like I said my house in the bay area has no sprinklers

They are not mandatory

wait i need to be a certain number of inches apart??

Damn right you do

-steps to the right- fixed 😛

this is what i get for moving to berkeley. stud regulation tsk tsk

Tsk tsk indeed

is it still 16inches on center for 4x2 studs? or has that changed?

I got a call into the State Fire Marshalls office (916.568.38ØØ), they were ways from the desk, awaiting a call back.

I just broke down and called because apparently "California residential fire extinguisher law" means OSHA to Google. 😠😠😠😠

Like I said

To my knowledge each household is not required to have a fire extinguisher

If they are, none of them are kept up to date

Either way

You cannot negligently discharge a fire extinguisher

It does not have the same amount of importance as a firearm

When your kid brings a fire extinguisher to school because he wants to be a fireman, everything is okay
