Similar to the reasoning presented in my previous response to Item #171.02, this proposal also oversteps the bounds of safety, by removing the shut-off valvedistance limitation for fireplace devices, so they do not have to be within six feet of the appliance, also it contravenesthe inherent safety provided by maintaining the current limit.

Revise text as follows:
1214.5 Piping Systems, and Equipment Leakage Test Leak Check.1214.5.1 Test Gases. Leak checks using fuel gas shall be permitted in piping systems that have been pressure tested in accordance with Section 1214.0. [NFPA 54:8.2.1]1214.5.2 Before Turning Gas On. Before gas is introduced into a system of new gas piping, the entire system shall be inspected to determine that there are no open fittings or ends and that all valves at unused outlets are closed and plugged or capped.1214.5.3 Test for Leakage Leak Check. Immediately after the gas is turned on into a new system or into a systemthat has been initially restored after an interruption of service, the piping system shall be checked for leakage. Where leakage is indicated, the gas supply shall be shut off until the necessary repairs have been made. [NFPA 54:8.8.3]
This proposal seeks to correct several inconsistencies with the leak checking procedure and to create the same standard of care in performing leak checks on all fuel gas piping systems. To summarize, the purpose of the leak check is to detect leaks in fuel gas piping systems. Testing of appliance controls is also beneficial, but must not bemandated in the leak check for existing systems, as it makes adherence to the code impossible when there is no access into the home. Most appliance controls will be tested by a leak check performed from the exterior, since mostmanual shut-offs will be in the open position. To be effective and to promote adherence to the code, the leak checkmust be capable of being performed under all conditions, especially when access into the structure is not possible.
1214.5.2 Before Turning Gas On. Before gas is introduced During the process of turning gas on into a system of new gas piping, the entire system shall be inspected to determine that there are no open fittings or ends and that allvalves at unused outlets are closed and plugged or capped. [NFPA 54:8.2.2]
The word “before” does not specify a time period and therefore the piping inspection could occur at a length of time before the actual gas service activation and thus allows for the possibility of additional changes to the gas piping system. The word “when” was chosen since it would require the piping inspection at the time when the gas service is being activated.

TOTAL ELIGIBLE TO VOTE: 28
VOTING RESULTS: AFFIRMATIVE: 23, NEGATIVE: 1, NOT RETURNED: 4 Bloice, Murray, Nikravi, SoskinEXPLANATION OF NEGATIVE:ADLER: I disagree with the Committee recommendation to Accept. The existing language is preferable. The fact is, that inspections are performed before or prior to releasing the gas, which will be turned on by the gas supplier, not while, or during, the process. Perhaps more appropriate language, such as: "as part of the process of turning on thegas..." would reflect that procedure more accurately. It might be better to re-examine this proposal's acceptance andperhaps accepting-as-modified will be considered.

Modification deletes Section 1212.6 as this is duplicate text in Section 510.5.6 and is not needed.
1216.3 Where the gas appliances to be installed have not been definitely specified, Table 12–1 may be used as a reference to estimate requirements of typical appliances. To obtain the cubic feet per hour (L/sec.) of gas required, divide input of appliances by the average Btu (Watt-hour) heating value per cubic foot (L) of the gas. The average Btu (Watt-hour) per cubic foot (L) of gas in the area ofthe installation may be obtained from the serving gas supplier as follows:(1) The serving gas supplier or;(2) Refer to recent gas bill from the serving gas supplier in the area of installation. Locate the “therm multiplier” andmultiply by 1000. The sum equals the average Btu (Watt-hour) heating value per cubic foot (L) of the gas supplied.
The proposed text provides additional information in order to obtain the BTU per cubic feet of gas supplied. Currenttext indicates that this information may be obtained by the serving gas supplier. However, when contacted, they were unable to obtain this information.

This method is not required but is just an option. It allows more accurate determination of BTU’s in many jurisdictions when other means are not reasonable. It takes nothing away from the code, it simply adds one more method to get needed information.

Revise text as follows:
1217.5 For conditions other than those covered by Section 1217.1, such as longer runs or greater gas demands, thesize of each gas piping system shall be determined by standard engineering methods acceptable to the Authority Having Jurisdiction, and each such system shall be so designed that the total pressure drop between the meter or other point of supply and any outlet when full demand is being supplied to all outlets, will at no time exceed fivetenths (0.5) inches (12.7 mm) water column pressure shall comply with the requirements of Section 1209.4.
The proposed change will make the selection of the maximum pressure drop consistent within the code and with theNational Fuel Gas Code. Currently, there is a conflict within the code between Section 1209.4.4 and Section 1217.1and Section 1217.3 regarding allowable pressure drop.
1. In Table 12–31 add "Special Use" line to table that reads "Pipe Sizing Between 2 psig Service and Line PressureRegulator."2. In Table 12–32, change “psi” to “inch wc”.3. In Table12–35, add a “Special Use” line to the table that reads “Tube Sizing Between 2 psig Service and Line Pressure Regulator.”4. In Table12–36, add a “Special Use” line to the table that reads “CSST Sizing Between Single or Second Stage (Low Pressure) Regulator and Appliance Shutoff Valve.”5. In Table 12–37, add a “Special Use” line to the table that reads “CSST Sizing Between 2 psig Service and Line Pressure Regulator.”6. In Table 12–39, add a "Special Use" line to table that reads "PE Pipe Sizing Between Integral 2-Stage Regulator atTank or 2nd Stage (Low Pressure Regulator) and Building.”7. In Table 12–40, add a "Special Use" line to the table that reads "PE Pipe Sizing Between 2 psi Service Regulator and Line Pressure Regulator.”8. In Table 12–41, add a "Special Use" line to table that reads "PE Tube Sizing Between Integral 2-Stage Regulator at Tank or Second Stage (Low Pressure Regulator) and Building".

1315.3 Burred ends of all tubing shall be rolled smooth with a chipless reamer or deburred using a deburring tool tothe full bore of the tube, and all chips shall be removed.
Issues and concerns regarding the cut ends of tubing include the following:(1) All references to reaming in the current and past codes states or implies that the burr has to be cut out by removing material therefore forbidding new technologies or innovation in dealing with the problem of de-burring copper pipe that does not remove material.
(2) Governing plumbing authorities not familiar with newer technologies for preparing the end of copper pipe for assembly may reject (and have rejected) the use of a tool that does not cut or remove the burr (traditional and statedprocess) [NFPA 99.5.1.10.5.2.3] and UPC 2006 IS 3–2003 2.3.4 but re-forms or smoothes the burr to the full insidediameter of the pipe without removing material.
(3) When a burr is removed from a copper pipe by cutting it with a blade type reamer, sharp chips and debris (down to the microscopic level) are created. The chips may become lodged in valves or other devises causing problems orif ingested or inhaled by the end user a health hazard may occur. A chipless reamer reforms the burr without removing material therefore debris is not produced in the process. This may be useful in addressing UPC 1317.2 and NFPA 99 5.1.10.5.3.12 (field contamination of pipe).
(4) A sharp clean deburring tool used to ream the tube has sharp surfaces that have the potential to cut or injure theinstaller particularly if the plumber is in a hurry. A chipless reamer has no sharp edges and prepares the copper pipein less time than the tools mentioned in the current code therefore decreasing the chance of injury and saving time inthe process.

EXPLANATION OF NEGATIVE:RODIO: I disagree with the committee decision to approve. This standard has nice titles but is actually very far reaching in it’s impact. Almost every provision is outside the realm of a plumbing contractor. For example, Section 5.1.1 requires drinking water every 200’. Does this mean the plumbing contractor has to ensure water stations every200’ on a large project? Are plumbers now responsible for the porta-potties. Under Section 3.2 expectorating are plumbers now on “spit patrol”. This standard while worthwhile does not belong in the plumbing code. Read it.

ASSE 1050 – 2002 Stack Air Adminttance Valves DWV Components For Sanitary Drainage Systems
ASSE 1051 – 2002 Individual and Branch Type DWV Components Air Admittance Valves for Sanitary Drainage Systems
In plumbing installations it has been necessary to extend vent pipes to the atmosphere. This has resulted in problems relating to extensive vent piping, roof penetrations requiring vent pipe flashings that eventually leak, floor penetrations requiring fire-stopping devices, weakening of building frames, and frost closures as well as pollution of the environment and indoor air by sewer gas.
Air admittance valves (AAVs) can resolve problems since they permit a relatively easier solution than venting to theatmosphere. Since there are less open pipes, the possibility of water entering the building through vent pipe roof flashings is substantially reduced. The AAV opens under negative pressure conditions allowing air to enter the DWVsystem preventing siphonage of the water trap. The valve closes by gravity under neutral and positive pressure, preventing the escape of sewer gas. It operates by means of a pressure/gravity-activated sealing assembly that acts as a one-way valve. Positive pressure will find relief through the open pipe relief vent required on the building drain when AAVs are installed. Systems in which AAVs are installed in conjunction with a minimum of one open vent pipe protect fixture traps against siphonage and backpressure, and air circulation is ensured throughout all parts of the system in compliance with the intent of Section 901.0 of the UPC. Studies have proven that by installingAAVs in the DWV system both positive and negative pressure transients are reduced and better controlled than in an open pipe system. Installation of AAVs has no adverse effect on the operation of the system and provides benefits in terms of trap seal protection under all conditions. AAVs have been installed in Europe since 1972 and inthe USA since 1988. The valves have been field tested and have proven to be a safe alternative to open pipe vents.The performance standards for AAVs are ASSE 1050 and 1051 and NSF 14.
EXPLANATION OF NEGATIVE:ADLER: I disagree with the Committee recommendation to Accept. This proposal is included in the group of other proposals, as noted above, and the comments do not need to be repeated here.FABRA: I disagree with the committee’s decision to accept. The purpose of this code and that of a plumber is to protect the health of the public. By allowing AAV’s to be used, under any situation, puts the public at a possible health risk. Installations in health care facilities such as hospitals, assisted living homes or even private homes with elderly or unhealthy individuals may put lives at risk.The use of air admittance valves as they are mechanical and subject to malfunction in the field, they are affected bypressures within the building, they do not prevent or relieve over-pressurization in the drain and vent system, they can become fouled with backflow of waste and sewage, and they are an ongoing maintenance consideration for thebuilding owner.Bottom line is that the open pipe system has been a proven system over time and should not be substituted by usinga mechanical device subject to failure. The open pipe system has successfully protected the health of the public.

EXPLANATION OF ABSTENTION:SCARANO: Due to my close relationship with a family involved with air admittance valves, I am abstaining on ItemNumbers 3, 134, 139, 195, and 239.
HAMILTON: I disagree with the committee’s decision to accept. The purpose of this code and that of a plumber is toprotect the health of the public. By allowing AAV’s to be used, under any situation, puts the public at a possible health risk. Installations in health care facilities such as hospitals, assisted living homes or even private homes with elderly or unhealthy individuals may put lives at risk.The studies that have been presented show that the AAV’s will, most (not all) of the time, operate properly when newly installed according to their standards. There is already the possibility of a problem. From my plumbing inspector experience, AAV’s have failed the initial test prior to installation. The failed AAV, when “popped” against the plumber’s palm, will pass a retest. If it failed once, what prevents it from failing again? Also, the AAV’s do not relieve positive pressures within the system – open pipe systems do.A study performed in Eagle County, Colorado in 2000, resulted in failures on installed AAV’s within an apartment complex. AAV’s have also failed in Wisconsin due to the movable membrane being fouled over time.Bottom line is that the open pipe system has been a proven system over time. It has successfully protected the health of the public. AAV’s introduce a possible failure within a plumbing system. They do not protect against positive pressure and rely on a moving membrane that has failed. AAV’s are not equal to the open pipe system andshould not be allowed in any situation.
RODIO: I disagree with the committee decision to accept. See reason for item #139. Air admittance valves should remain as an alternate material.

This standard is a 32 page broadly written document on the concept, design and upkeep of non-potable water systems. Green and sustainable building movements are promoting water saving technologies in new construction.Efforts must be made to ensure that designers and installers understand and have reference to as much informationto these systems in order to assure safety and proper function. UPC Chapter 16, parts one and two, address thesesystems, but they neglect “combination” type installations that collect rain water, which is addressed in the CSA standard. Rain water collection is a more common practice in the green and sustainable building movement. The users of the UPC would benefit from having additional resources to refer to such as this for special engineering applications.
A footnote should be applied to the standard as not all provisions of this standard related to the code, or may be against the current code requirements. This standard should be footnoted as below:

RECOMMENDATION:
UPC 2009 1610.0
Technical Committee recommended a task group to address issues regarding reclaimed water systems, identification, marking requirements and treated wastewater or storm water for further study because additional information is needed to make informed decisions.
RODIO: I agree with the committee decision to reject and send to a task force. This is an area of growing concern. The market for these types of system will only grow with water conservation.
