Help improve fire protection levels for people and property in manufactured homes and communities with the 2017 edition of NFPA 501A. New edition references NFPA 13D.

Make sure manufactured housing correctly addresses fire safety considerations for residents by complying with NFPA 501A: Standard for Fire Safety Criteria for Manufactured Home Installations, Sites, and Communities. This important Standard covers the installation of manufactured homes and home sites, including accessory buildings, structures, and communities.

NFPA 501A establishes the minimum criteria associated with:

  • Manufactured home separations
  • Setback for accessory buildings and community buildings
  • Provisions related to the general fuel supply and electrical services
  • Life safety and fire safety

Changes include new references to NFPA 13D.

Added language in the 2017 edition -- addressing the maintenance and testing of home fire sprinkler systems -- directs owners to the practices recommended in NFPA 13D: Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems in One- and Two-Family Dwellings and Manufactured Homes. Other changes include updated references throughout.

Essential for manufacturers as well as AHJs, the 2017 edition of NFPA 501A also includes an informational Annex that outlines the responsibilities of the manufactured home resident.
