FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: 2010 CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE AMENDMENTS -FIRE SPRINKLER
REQUIREMENT FOR RESIDENTIAL ALTERATIONS OR ADDITIONS
SUMMARY:
The 2010 Fire Code adopted by the State of California requires fire sprinklers within all
new buildings (including single family homes) but does not include a requirement for
sprinkler retrofit when additions are made to unsprinklered single family homes. The
City Council adopted Ordinances No. 1386 and No. 1387 on December 14, 2010 which
included several amendments to the California Building and Fire Code as
recommended by the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA.) OCFA is requesting
additional amendments to the Tustin City Code (related to Building and Fire Codes)
(Amendment 1) to require that the entire homes be retrofitted with fire sprinkler systems
when additions are made beyond certain thresholds. These thresholds are:
OCFA Option 1: area of the addition exceeds 1,000 square feet and the addition
exceeds 33 percent
OCFA Option 2: area of the house exceeds 3,600 square feet and the addition
exceeds 33 percent
OCFA staff has stated that the proposed requirement for fire sprinkler system retrofit
would save lives and is warranted due to the special climactic conditions typical of
Orange County and that local circulation patterns can be significantly disrupted during
emergency situations. An OCFA staff representative will be making a presentation to
the City Council.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Council consider the following options:
• No additional amendments beyond what is required by State Law
• OCFA Option 1: area of the addition exceeds 1,000 square feet and the addition
exceeds 33 percent

• OCFA Option 2: area of the house exceeds 3,600 square feet and the addition
exceeds 33 percent
FISCAL IMPACT:
The OCFA has identified that there is no fiscal impact to the city budget. However, the
adoption of either OCFA Options will increase the cost of construction to the home
owner. The precise fiscal impact cannot be estimated because of the many factors
involved in existing structures and in the renovation process.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
The OCFA has requested that its cities include an amendment to the 2010 Building and
Fire Codes that would go beyond current state law to require fire sprinkler systems be
provided throughout unsprinklered single family homes when additions are proposed
that exceed a defined threshold. Staff met with the OCFA and jointly agreed that this
issue requires separate consideration from the timely tri-annual code adoption cycle by
the City Council.
The 2010 California Building and Fire Codes already require fire sprinkler systems for
all new residential structures. The Fire Authority staff has suggested that additional fire
sprinkler systems be required for existing residential structures if the addition or
renovation exceeded certain thresholds. Two options are proposed as follows:
OCFA Option 1: area of the addition exceeds 1,000 square feet and the addition
exceeds 33 percent
OCFA Option 2 (OCFA preferred option): area of the house exceeds 3,600 square
feet and the addition exceeds 33 percent
OCFA staff has stated that the proposed requirement for fire sprinkler systems retrofit
would save lives and is warranted due to the special climatic conditions typical of
Orange County and that local circulation patterns can be significantly disrupted during
an emergency situation.
The following is the proposed text of the language of each option:
OCFA Option 1: area of the addition exceeds 1.000 square feet and the addition
exceeds 33 percent
Amend Section 903.2.8 (Residential) of the Fire Code to require an automatic sprinkler
system throughout an existing, unsprinklered residence when an addition is proposed to
be 33 percent or more of the existing building area and greater than 1,000 square feet
within a two year period as follows:
903.2.8 Group R. An automatic sprinkler system installed in accordance with
Section 902.1 shall be provided throughout all buildings with a Group R fire area
as follows:

New Buildings: An automatic sprinkler system shall be installed throughout
all new buildings.
2. Existing Buildings: An automatic sprinkler system shall be installed
throughout when one of the following conditions exists:
a. When an addition is 33 percent or more of the existing building area as
defined in Section 202, and greater than 1, 000 square feet (93 m2)
within a two year period; or
b. An addition when the existing building is already provided with
automatic sprinklers; or
c. When an existing Group R Occupancy is being substantially
renovated, and where the scope of the renovation is such that the
Building Code Official determines that the complexity of installing a
sprinkler system would be the same as in a new building.
OCFA Option 2: area of the house exceeds 3,600 square feet and the addition
exceeds 33 percent
Amend Section 903.2.8 (Residential) of the Fire Code to require an automatic sprinkler
system throughout an existing, unsprinklered residence when the building area exceeds
3,600 square feet if an addition is proposed to be 33 percent or more of the existing
building area within a two year period as follows:
903.2.8 Group R. An automatic sprinkler system installed in accordance with
Section 903.3 shall be provided throughout all buildings with a Group R fire area
as follows:
New Buildings: An automatic sprinkler system shall be installed throughout
all new buildings.
2. Existing Buildings: An automatic sprinkler system shall be installed
throughout when the building area exceeds 3, 600 square feet (334 m2) and
when one of the following conditions exists:
a. When an addition is 33 percent or more of the existing building area,
as defined in Section 202, within a two year period; or
b. An addition when the existing building is already provided with
automatic sprinklers; or
c. When an existing Group R Occupancy is being substantially
renovated, and where the scope of the renovation is such that the
Building Code Official determines that the complexity of installing a
sprinkler system would be the same as in a new building.

City staff surveyed other communities within the County and found ten (10) agencies,
including Anaheim, Santa Ana, Huntington Beach, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Costa
Mesa, La Habra, La Palma, Lake Forest, Los Alamitos, and Rancho Santa Margarita,
follow the State or another standard other than those proposed by the OCFA. Six (6)
cities including Aliso Viejo, Buena Park, Cypress, Laguna Hills, Laguna Woods, and
Placentia adopted OCFA Option 1. Other cities are adopting other standards or are still
considering potential amendments, but have not yet made a decision in this matter.
In addition, the Building Industry Association (BIA) has expressed opposition to the
OCFA proposal (Attachment 2.) Their primary issues of concern relate to the costs
associated with sprinkler installation and that the installation can be very complicated.
There are a number of potential considerations, including but not limited to, adequate
space for installation, adequate water pressure, aesthetic issues related to exposed
plumbing, prohibitive cost, and potential insurance issues due to the risk of water
damage and moisture intrusion.

FROM: LAURA BLAUL, OCFA ASSISTANT CHIEF/FIRE MARSHAL
SUBJECT: Consideration of Modification to Tustin's Fire, Building, and
Residential Code
SUMMARY
This item is submitted for Council's consideration to modify specific sections in
ordinance 1386 and 1387 of the City of Tustin Municipal Code adopting the 2010
California Fire, Building and Residential Codes as it applies to residential fire sprinkler
protection for homes undergoing substantial expansion.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On December 7, 2010, the City Council adopted the 2010 California Fire, Building,
Residential Code and other related construction codes with local amendments. Fire
sprinkler protection of homes was deleted from staff recommendations and deferred for
later consideration.
The City of Tustin has had a local residential fire sprinkler ordinance for single family
homes since 1991. Initially, the threshold was 6000 square feet and, in 1994, lowered
to 5500 square feet. The ordinance required all new homes above the threshold (6000
or 5500) and existing homes that were expanded above those thresholds, to be
protected with fire sprinklers. In 2007, the fire sprinkler ordinance was further refined to
include existing homes undergoing alteration/remodeling of 50% of the square footage
or greater when the installation of the fire sprinkler system was less than 5% of the
construction cost.
The case for fire sprinklers is a strong one. Nationally, fires kills more people than all
other natural disasters combined. Over 85% of these fires occur in the home, where
people feel the safest, and eight out of ten fire fatalities happen in the home. In Orange
County fire sprinklers have demonstrated that they are the most effective way of
eliminating deaths, reducing injuries by 96%, and reducing property loss by over 60%.
OCFA's findings are consistent with the national statistics published by the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA). Between 2004 and 2009, there were 91 residential fires
in Tustin. This represents 34 fires per 10,000 households. These fires caused 4 deaths

(the highest in OCFA's 23 jurisdictions), 10 injuries and an estimated $6 million in
damage. There were no injuries or fire related deaths in homes protected by sprinklers.
If the objective is solely community safety and the proposed changes to the fire
sprinkler ordinance were based only on the statistical analysis, sprinklers should be
required in all new and existing residential units. However that would not take into
consideration a balance between safety and prosperity. OCFA believes the proposed
ordinance provides a reasonable balance between safety and cost. If adopted as
written (Attachment 1), the revised ordinance will require fire sprinkler protection in
existing homes that increase in size by more than 33% and result in a home that
exceeds 3,600 square feet. The 3600 square foot threshold is based on the fire flow
requirements specified in the Fire Code. Fire flow is the theoretical estimate of the
quantity of water required to extinguish a fire given the building construction
characteristics and size. At 3600 square feet, the amount of fire flow (water demand)
begins to climb exponentially (moves to commercial quantities).
Council members have previously expressed concern with the cost of providing
sprinklers in homes undergoing renovation. In a November 2010 survey conducted by
OCFA, the current costs associated with installing sprinkler in an existing residence
were found to range from $1.18 to $2.40 per square foot, or a average $1.79. These
findings were consistent with national 2008 "Home Fire Sprinkler Cost Assessment"
study which was conducted by Fire Protection Research Foundation and found the
average sprinkler installation cost was $1.61 per square foot. Further breakdown of the
OCFA's survey can be found in Attachment 2. The installation cost can be partially
offset by insurance savings. The major insurance companies provide discounts of up to
a 10% for homes protected by residential fire sprinklers.
One issue that can increase the cost of fire sprinklers is water supply. In the rare
occasion when an increase in the supply line from the street to the water meter is
required, an excessive cost burden may be incurred and, therefore, an exception to the
sprinkler ordinance is proposed.
FISCAL IMPACT
The adoption of the revised Building and Fire Code language will not have a fiscal
impact on the City's budget.

Fire Sprinkler Cost Evaluation
Summary:
OCFA conducted a survey from several fire sprinkler contractors who work in Orange
County to determine the current cost of retrofitting an existing home with fire sprinklers.
The average range was found to be between $1.18 and $2.40 a square foot, with the
medium cost at $1.79 a square foot. The cost can be slightly higher for those homes
that have unique ceiling configurations. Ayearly discount of up to 10% off homeowners
insurance is offered by insurance companies for fire sprinkler system installation.
Findings:
OCFA conducted a survey of four fire sprinkler companies (combined have installed
over 4,100 residential fire sprinkler systems in OCFA's area since 2000) and the
American Fire Sprinkler Association (AFSA) Southern California Chapter, which
represents over 60 sprinkler companies, to provide current cost estimates for fire
sprinklers involving a retrofit of an existing home. AFSA and each contractor was
provided with a scenario where there was an hypothetical 1800 square foot (ft2) existing
home, non-sprinkler, single story, which was adding a 1000 ft2 second story (total of
2800 ft2), with a 3/4" meter size and water pressure of 75-80 PSI. They were advised to
take into account the typical residential construction characteristics that would be found
in tract style homes.
The estimated cost provided by the contractors range from $1.18 to $2.00 square foot
with the average of $1.56 a square foot. Not all home owners contract directly with the
sprinkler contractor, in some cases the sprinkler contractor is contracted by the General
Contractor who will add a markup to the cost of the sprinklers; 20% is the norm. The
cost for fire sprinklers with the General Contractors markup would then range from to
$1.41 to $2.40 a square foot with the average of $1.87 a square foot. All the
contractors related that the price may increase for non standard ceiling designs such as
domed or beamed that are found in some large custom homes. Flat and sloped
ceilings are considered standard ceiling types.

Additionally, the contractors provided information on some recent projects they have
completed. The information below represents the actual prices charged for fire sprinkler
installation where there was a significant addition to an existing home. The 7368 square
foot home is an example where the price can go up due to non-standard ceiling design.

Further research revealed a 2008 "Home Fire Sprinkler Cost Assessment" study which
was conducted by Fire Protection Research Foundation, and prepared by Newport
Partners. The study was conducted nationally and concluded "The cost of sprinkler
systems to the homebuilder, in dollars per sprinklered SF, ranged from $0.38 to $3.66.
This range represents the 30 different house plans, with the average cost being $1.61
per sprinklered SF. The low end of this range ($0.38/sprinklered SF) represents a
California house in a community with a longstanding ordinance, sprinklers in the attic
and the garage (in addition to the living space), and some potential pricing benefits from
a volume relationship with the sprinkler contractor. The high end of this cost range
($3.66/sprinklered SF) represents a Colorado house on well water and a system
constructed with copper piping which utilized anti-freeze for freeze protection during the
winter. These costs include all costs to the builder associated with the sprinkler system
including design, installation, and other costs such as permits, additional equipment,
and increased tap and water meter fees - to the extent that they apply."The estimates
by AFSA and the four contractors are consistent with the national study.
Each contractor pointed out that the cost is based on not replacing the water line from
the street to the meter. Although these are rare occurrences the cost for such
replacement can range from $2,000 up to $10,000. Several water purveyors were
contacted and confirmed the cost estimates provided by the sprinkler contractors.
OCFA is recommending an exception to the sprinkler if the replacement of the supply
line is required.
Research shows that Farmers Insurance, State Farm Insurance, and All State
Insurance all give discounts on home owner insurance policy ranging from 5 to 10%.
The average cost for homeowner insurance is $947 per year

Re: 2011 Code Adoption
Mr. Huang,
I am writing on behalf of the membership of the Building Industry Association of Southern
California, Orange County Chapter (BIA/OC) to address the issue of mandatory residential fire
sprinkler installation for existing residential structure remodel or retrofit. We appreciate the
opportunity to comment on this important issue.
Until recently, our membership has not taken a position on this issue. As you know, the core
of our membership is made up of production homebuilders. However, we do have a significant
number of remodelers within the BIA/OC that have recently expressed concern.
Our industry's primary issues of concern relate to the dramatic costs associated with sprinkler
installation. Unlike new construction, the challenges associated with sprinkler installation in an
existing residential structure can be very complicated. There are a number of potential
complications, including but not limited to, adequate space for installation, adequate water
pressure, aesthetic issues related to exposed plumbing, prohibitive cost, and potential
insurance issues due to the risk of water damage and moisture intrusion.
The risks listed above are risks that will be assessed by individual home owners as they
consider remodeling or retrofitting their homes. Our concern is that the risks will dominate
homeowners' cost/benefit analysis and prevent them from moving forward on remodeling
projects. The obvious fallout for our remodeier members is a further decline in work.
No sector of our industry can afford further loss of work. Increased regulatory pressures that
have the potential to exacerbate the continued devastation being felt by the construction
industry are unacceptable. It is for this reason that the BIA/OC is opposed any proposal that
would require mandatory installation of fire sprinklers for existing residential structures in the
case of retrofit or remodel above and beyond the city's current standards.
We appreciate the opportunity to express our views to the City of Tustin. Thank you for your
consideration.
All the best,
