About this title

Synopsis

Access the Latest Information to Help Safeguard Lives and Property in Health Care Facilities. To help ensure health care professionals can treat patients in a safe and efficient environment, it’s critical to help protect their facilities from fire, electrical, and related hazards. NFPA 99, Health Care Facilities Code, offers the latest performance criteria for health care facilities and appliances, including medical gas and vacuum systems, electrical systems, gas equipment, and features of fire protection. The code features provisions for the installation, inspection, maintenance, and testing of all health care facilities—including hospitals, nursing homes, and limited care settings. The 2024 edition has several major changes, including: Added reference to ASSE/IAPMO/ANSI 6060, Professional Qualifications Standard for Medical Gas Systems Designers Changes to the maximum allowable quantity (MAQ) limits for medical gas and cryogenic fluid central supply systems Revised requirements for medical gas and vacuum system auxiliary connections to facilitate emergency preparedness, maintenance, and supplementation New pressure-drop calculations and limits New section on the withdrawal of cryogenic liquids from containers for use in liquid form New emergency management requirements Revisions to hyperbaric chamber pressure relief requirements Revisions to dental gas and vacuum system requirements
