Overview The 2018 Florida Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems Code provides comprehensive requirements for the design, installation, testing, and maintenance of clean agent fire extinguishing systems. These systems are used in environments where traditional water-based fire suppression methods could damage sensitive equipment or materials, such as in data centers, museums, and laboratories. The code includes guidelines for agent selection, system design, discharge, safety precautions, and inspection to ensure effective fire suppression without harm to protected assets.
The 2018 edition is based on the NFPA 2001 Standard on Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems and incorporates Florida-specific amendments to address the state’s unique conditions and regulatory requirements. This code is essential for engineers, contractors, fire protection professionals, and code officials involved in the design and maintenance of clean agent fire extinguishing systems in Florida.
