What Code Do You Use?


I want to know what code you use for plumbing in your area.

Here we use:

UPC Oregon Admendment

Re: What Code Do You Use?


We're on the UPC but are having hearings on changing to the international. We've already changed the building and mech to internatuional but I know the plumbing inspectors feel the upc is a better code.

There was a push by the builders to get the I building codes adopted thinking it was a less strict code. Turns out the Ibc has requirements for some sub codes and many guys don't care for the new code either.
