Hello Kelly,


Too edit your post click the button that says edit.

For code info check out

www.iccsafe.org

I am not sure what code your question should be answered from.


IRC

1 sq foot of ventilation for ever 150 sq ft of floor space.

Hello Kelly,


Wow madcad.com prices are just a bit steep!!! I can see why you are not happy!! Try this link for free codes access:

http://www.amlegal.com/icc_nxt/gateway.dll/?f=templates$fn=main-nf.htm$vid=iquest:fl_free

I highly recommend joining ICC as a professional member. By the time I received my first free code manual and discount on the other manuals I wanted it paid for a years+ dues anyhow.

Good luck.

Also check out this website … www.codecheck.com


Lots of good code/inspection related info and links there, and CodeCheck is a widely used reference by HI's

Many of the technical topics here also go into model code provisions as a guide to current construction standards.

Just my opinion and 2-nickels ... ![icon_wink.gif](upload://ssT9V5t45yjlgXqiFRXL04eXtqw.gif)
