In a recent Q&A on the FacilityCare website, consultant Brad Keyes answered a question about ABHR dispensers in business occupancies
Q: For business occupancies, does the requirement prohibiting alcohol-based hand sanitizers from being installed above a carpeted floor apply? The business occupancy does not have an automatic fire suppression system.
A: Please be aware that alcohol-based hand-rub (ABHR) dispensers are not permitted in the egress corridors of business occupancies. This is found in section 38/39.3.2.1 of the 2000 Life Safety Code (LSC), which references section 8.4 of the same code. Section 8.4.3.2 states: “No storage or handling of flammable liquids or gases shall be permitted in any location where such storage would jeopardize egress from the structure …” Since corridors are used as paths of egress in business occupancies, that means ABHR dispensers are not permitted in business occupancy corridors.
