The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) opened public review for the draft BSR/IICRC S220 Standard for Professional Inspection for Hard Surface Floor Coverings. The draft S220 Standard is available March 6 to April 20 for review.
The IICRC S220 Standard describes the procedures, methods and systems to follow when inspecting light commercial and residential hard surface floor coverings such as stone, laminate, pre-finished wood, ceramic and resilient. This Standard does not specifically address the protocols and procedures for installing hard surface floor coverings.
The IICRC S220 draft Standard is available for review and comment as part of the ANSI 45-day public review period. Download the new draft Standard and submit your comments online at www.iicrc.org/page/SBSRIICRCS220. All comments must be submitted using the online comment form no later than April 20, 2020.
