2015 INTERNATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE

The 2015 International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC), published by the International Code Council (ICC), provides minimum safety standards for the installation and inspection of fuel gas piping systems, appliances, venting, and related accessories used in residential, commercial, and industrial applications. This code is an essential reference for contractors, engineers, and inspectors preparing for trade exams in mechanical, HVAC, and gas line certification. Used by state and county licensing boards including the CILB and municipal code authorities, it ensures compliance with design, construction, and maintenance requirements for natural gas and LP-gas systems. 1 Exam Prep offers this codebook as part of its contractor exam preparation materials, aligning with testing standards set by PSI and Prometric for mechanical and gas contractor license examinations.

The 2015 INTERNATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE SOFT COVER sets forth requirements that address the design and installation of fuel gas systems and gas-fired appliances, based on the most current information and technology available. The requirements are performance-driven, making this an effective tool and valuable addition to a user's code products. In this updated code, the section on protection of piping has been completely rewritten, and readers are informed that line regulators installed in rigid piping must have a union installed to allow removal of the regulator.
