Make Sure you Are Compliant with the New 2025 NFPA 13 Requirements

Fire sprinkler systems under new 2025 NFPA 13 require record of completion documents, shop drawings, and as-builts stored on-site.

Why this new requirement?

Buildings preparing for renovation often cannot find the fire sprinkler drawings or final documentation they need.

Where is the specific requirement?

The new 2025 NFPA 13 requirements regarding onsite fire sprinkler document storage are in §16.11.1.3. NFPA 72 carries similar requirements in §7.7 for fire alarm systems.

Physical vs electronic storage?

Physical sets can be removed from the job site, local files quickly become outdated, and there is no reliable way to ensure the correct version is being used. NFPA 13 permits physical or electronic storage. The Caident Access Point QR code ensures the files are always there and always current.
