FireCodes

What types of fire codes does FireCodes cover?

FireCodes hosts the fire and building codes that states, cities, and federal authorities have adopted into law, currently across 30 states, plus New York City, Phoenix, and federal authorities. Coverage focuses on fire sprinklers, standpipes, fire pumps, fire alarms, and fire life safety systems, among others. See the full directory on our Supported Codes page.

How accurate is the information provided by FireCodes?

Every answer cites the specific sections it draws from, and the References panel shows the exact, verbatim code text, untouched by AI, so you can verify each answer against the code itself. FireCodes retrieves and gathers the relevant sections; you apply your own expertise to interpret and apply them. That division of labor is deliberate, and it's why professionals trust the tool.

Can FireCodes assist with compliance for my specific jurisdiction?

Yes. FireCodes is built exclusively around codes adopted into law by a jurisdiction: state, city, or federal. Select the adopted code books that match your project's location and you're researching the editions actually in force there. Final applicability always rests with your authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

Who gets the most value from FireCodes?

Professionals who are in the code regularly: fire protection engineers, sprinkler and alarm designers, plan reviewers, inspectors, and ITM technicians. Our honest rule of thumb: if you open a code book or search a code PDF five or more times in a normal week, FireCodes pays for itself.

Will FireCodes replace the need to know the code?

No, and it isn't meant to. FireCodes is built by fire protection engineers who believe knowing the code, and knowing how to search a code book, should never go away. The tool handles the large-document scanning and gathers the relevant adopted sections with citations; interpreting and applying the code remains your work.
