NFPA 91 2026 Edition

NFPA 91: Standard for Exhaust Systems for Air Conveying of Vapors, Gases, Mists, and Particulate Solids, 2026 edition

$157.00

Help ensure compliance with critical requirements for safeguarding potentially dangerous exhaust systems from fires and explosions.

For well over a century, NFPA codes and standards have been addressing the inherent dangers that blower and exhaust systems can present to public safety. NFPA 91, Standard for Exhaust Systems for Air Conveying of Vapors, Gases, Mists, and Particulate Solids, represents the most comprehensive requirements for designing, constructing, installing, testing, operating, and maintaining these systems.

This standard is a must-have resource to help improve safety and mitigate risks from fires and explosions in exhaust systems where vapors, gases, mists, and particulate solids are present in the airflow. The standard incorporates provisions on the application of exhaust systems to specific industries or operations from NFPA 1, Fire Code, NFPA 30, Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code, and many other codes and standards.

It is critical for design and fire protection engineers, safety and health professionals, industrial hygienists, and fire and building officials to know ignition risks of materials pneumatically conveyed through duct systems.

The 2026 edition reflects the latest changes for exhaust systems, including:

  • Concentration limits for systems conveying combustible particulate solids and hybrid mixtures have been clarified, as have the situations in which combination fire/smoke dampers or smoke dampers can be installed in exhaust systems.
  • Firestopping requirements have been aligned with building codes and terminology for flame spread index and smoke developed index have been aligned with industry test standards.
  • Annex Section G.8 regarding NFPA 69 evaluations of lithium-ion ESSs has been revised to provide engineering design and risk mitigation considerations to aid in evaluating the consequences of an explosion event. 
  • Applications of the document to both combustible and noncombustible particulate solids have been clarified.
