Stacy Gerlich (Fire Captain & Paramedic) gives expert video advice on: How can I tell if my home meets fire codes and regulations?

If you live in the city of Los Angeles, the easiest way to tell if your home meets fire codes and regulations is, and probably in any place you live, you can go on the web and just do a search. Put in "fire code" and then put in the city that you live, and I know that in Los Angeles if you go on the webpage and you put in fire code it will put up a link for the Los Angeles Fire Department fire code. And then you have to go through the table of contents and see what it is that you're looking for. That's the easiest, or I should rephrase that to say that that is the probably the most accessible. The easiest is certainly what most people would think, and that is to call the local Fire Department. But let me just say that we are here to help and it doesn't matter, we work 24 hours a day , 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The bottom line is that what were going to do is go and grab the book that says fire code and look up that particular answer for you. So you can help us by knowing that there are other places for you to gather this information on how to tell if you home meets fire codes and regulations.
