Establishes provisions relating to fire suppression and fire safety
SB 1659 requires regular testing and certification for fire life-safety dampers in commercial buildings (excluding single- and two-family homes), affecting building owners and HVAC contractors. It mandates initial testing within 12 months of installation and subsequent testing every four years, with all inspections following NFPA 80/105 standards. Contractors and inspectors must hold specific ICB certifications or equivalent ISO/IEC 17024 accreditation, and building owners must maintain compliance records and post public verification notices in lobbies. The law aims to ensure damper functionality through standardized testing, documentation, and corrective actions for deficiencies.
