Newly revised, this Code Check: HVAC, 2nd Edition, is an indispensable reference of the latest international mechanical codes for professional builders and homeowners. It provides comprehensive information on essential heating, ventilation, and air conditioning codes and the principles behind them. Its durable, laminated pages and flipchart format make it a perfect job-site resource.

Code Check: HVAC is based on the 2003 International Mechanical Code and the 2003 Uniform Mechanical Code, as well as relevant NFPA Standards. Printed on laminated card stock to withstand use at the jobsite, this quick guide to the International Mechanical Code presents the most frequently referenced sections of the International Mechanical Code as they relate to residential construction.

Updated to the 2003 Uniform Mechanical Code and 2003 International Residential Code, Code Check: HVAC, 2nd Edition, was compiled by certified inspectors with more than 54 years combined experience. Clear language, illustrations, and tables work together to create an easy-to-use and easy-to-understand reference for homeowners and professional builders alike.

From the Introduction:
Code Check: HVAC is a condensed field guide to the most commonly cited code violations and installation issues with residential mechanical systems. It is not a formal interpretation; the ones who decide what is "to code" are the authorities administering the building department in your area. Consult with them before beginning any construction project.

There are essentially two families of mechanical codes at this time. One is the International Codes, and in particular the International Residential Code, and the other is the alliance of the IAPMO Uniform Codes and the NFPA Codes. We have utilized several of these codes to emphasize their similarities and the common safety principles at the root of all these codes. Check with your building department to determine the codes and editions applicable in your area.
