Title
Appeal of David and Jeannette Morisette to a Fire Certificate of Occupancy Correction Notice at 1539 BIRMINGHAM STREET.
 
Purpose of Appeal
I am appealing Item 3 on the attached April 18, 2011 Fire Inspection Correction Notice.  
The dryer exhaust ducts are 4" and are constructed of smooth metal.  There are no transition ducts as referenced in the Minnesota Mechanical Code (attached) and therefore labeling is not required.  Per code 504.2, the exhaust penetration goes through an outside building wall which is not required to be fire resistant therefore construction of galvanized steel is not required.
 
Date of Order(s)
April 18, 2011
