This edition of the 2009 Uniform Mechanical Code helps you stay up to date by providing the complete requirements for the installation and maintenance of heating, ventilating, cooling, and refrigeration systems, along with incinerators and other heat producing appliances. This comprehensive resource has been developed using an ANSI-accredited consensus code-making process, and includes critical information that addresses every aspect of mechanical systems, from general guidelines through provisions for cooling towers, hydronics, and process piping. Complete chapters cover key topics such as the installation and testing of gas or fuel-fired equipment, and the sizing of venting systems serving appliances.

The UMC also includes several appendices that provide extra information about specialized materials.
