I did make a note about the windows; they don't need to be as big as you specified; Mass code allows them to be a little smaller(cheaper). You'll still need to meet all the other code requirements (insulation, fire blocking, vapor barriers, ceiling height, door sizes, etc, etc. If you understand that there are a lot of specific requirements, you can start work now and we'll issue the permit next week when the other inspector gets back.

Please contact us with anything else we may have missed. Thank you, Katherine and Rich Bentrewicz ---------- Original Message---------- From: Louis Hasbrouck<Iasbrouck@northamptonma.gov> To: richbent@comcast.net Date: July 16, 2019 at 4:40 PM Subject: 771 Bridge Road Rich, We need more information before we approve the permit for 771 Bridge Road. Since you're creating at least one bedroom, the whole house needs smoke and co detectors per current code (sections AJ102.3.1, R314, R315). We need sketch plans of smoke/co detector locations in the whole house including a heat detector in the attached garage. We also need specifications on the egress windows in the bedrooms (per section R310). See attached mass amendments to the building code R314.3 Location. Smoke alarms shall be installed in the following locations: 1. In each sleeping room. 2. Outside each separate sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms. 3. On each additional story of the dwelling, including basements and habitable attics and not including crawl spaces and uninhabitable attics. In dwellings or dwelling units with split levels and without an intervening door between the adjacent levels, a smoke alarm installed on the upper level shall suffice for the adjacent lower level provided that the lower level is less than one full story below the upper level. 4. Smoke alarms shall be installed not less than three feet(914 mm) horizontally from the door or opening of a bathroom that contains a bathtub or shower unless this would prevent placement of a smoke alarm required by section R314.3. 5. For each 1,000 ft2 of area or part thereof. 6. Near all stairs. R315.3 Location. Carbon monoxide alarms in dwelling units shall be outside of each separate sleeping area within ten feet of the bedrooms. Where a fuel-burning appliance is located within a bedroom or its attached bathroom, a carbon monoxide alarm shall be installed within the bedroom.At least one alarm shall be installed on each story of a dwelling unit, including basements and cellars but not in crawl spaces and uninhabitable attics. R315.4 Combination Alarms. Combination carbon monoxide and smoke alarms (in compliance with section 314) shall be permitted to be used in lieu of carbon monoxide alarms, located as in R315.3, provided they are compatible and the smoke alarms take precedence. R314.8 Heat Detector.A single heat detector listed for the ambient environment shall be installed in: 1. Any garage attached to or under the dwelling (detached garages do not require a heat detector). 2.A new garage attached to an existing dwelling. If the existing house contains a fire detection system that is compatible with the garage heat detector, then the detector shall be interconnected to that system. Where the existing fire detection system is not compatible with the garage heat detector, the garage heat detector shall be connected to an alarm (audible occupant notification), or compatible heat detector with an alarm, located in the dwelling and within 20 feet (6,096 mm) of the nearest door to the garage from the dwelling.An alarm is not required in the garage, either integral with or separate from the heat detector. R314.8.1 Heat Detector Placement. For flat-finished ceilings, the heat detector shall be placed on or near the center of the garage ceiling. For sloped ceilings having a rise to run of greater than one foot in eight feet (305 mm in 2,438 mm), the heat detector shall be placed in the approximate center of the vaulted ceiling but no closer than four inches (102 mm)to any wall. Heat detection shall be listed in accordance with UL 521 or UL 539. R310.2.1 Minimum Opening Area. Emergency and escape rescue openings shall have a net clear opening of not less than 5.7sf.The net clear opening dimensions required by this section shall be obtained by the normal operation of the emergency escape and rescue opening from the inside.The net clear height opening shall be not less than 24 inches and the net clear width shall be not less than 20 inches. EXCEPTIONS: 1. Grade floor or below grade openings shall have a net clear opening of not less than five sf 2. Single-hung and/or double hung windows shall have a minimum net clear opening of 3.3 sf In such cases, the minimum net clear opening dimensions shall be 20 inches by 24 inches in either direction.
