2018 International Mechanical Code (International Code Council Series)

Upgrade your knowledge and stay ahead of the game with the 2018 International Mechanical Code (International Code Council Series) Book. This comprehensive guide establishes the minimum regulations for mechanical systems, allowing you to design and implement cutting-edge solutions. With its prescriptive and performance-related provisions, this book embraces the use of new materials, methods, and designs, ensuring you stay up-to-date with the industry's best practices.

One of the key additions in the 2018 edition is the coverage of pollution control units. This vital update ensures that your mechanical systems are not only efficient but also eco-friendly, meeting the increasing demands for sustainability. Additionally, a new exception acknowledges Type I kitchen hoods listed for clearances to combustibles of less than 18 inches, providing you with more flexibility in design choices.

Discover the latest innovation in duct systems with the inclusion of phenolic duct in the code. This newer type of non-metallic duct offers enhanced durability and insulation properties, ensuring optimal performance and energy efficiency. The code also introduces coverage for high volume large diameter fans (HVLD), also known as high volume low speed (HVLS) fans. Incorporating these fans into your mechanical systems can significantly improve air circulation, resulting in better indoor comfort and reduced energy costs.

But that's not all! The 2018 International Mechanical Code also relaxes the requirements for sealing duct joints and seams, specifically for Snap- and Button-lock duct joints located within the thermal envelope. This update saves you time and effort during installation while maintaining the system's integrity.

Don't let outdated regulations hinder your success. Stay on top of the industry by embracing the 2018 International Mechanical Code. Upgrade your mechanical systems, improve efficiency, and ensure compliance with the latest standards. Take the first step now and get your hands on the essential guide that will revolutionize the way you approach mechanical design.
