NFPA 1192: Standard on Recreational Vehicles, 2008 Edition

Expanded 2008 NFPA 1192 is the key to recreational vehicle fire safety.

With unique characteristics of size and use, recreational vehicles require a distinct set of fire and life safety criteria to guard against the hazards of fire and explosions. Apply the 2008 NFPA 1192: Standard on Recreational Vehicles for comprehensive provisions for the correct installation of plumbing, fuel-burning, electrical, and other safety-related systems.

Technical changes in the expanded 2008 NFPA 1192 include revised requirements for recreational vehicle exits, a new annex on product listing standards, and two important new sections addressing:

• Testing high-pressure piping systems for gas leakage
  
• Fuel tank construction

This widely used document replaced ANSI A119.2 with a complete set of merged rules regulating the full spectrum of safety in recreational vehicles. Manufacturers and authorities depend on the 2008 NFPA 1192 for the latest protocols for the protection of people, property, and the environment. (Softbound, 46 pp., 2008)
