Dear Mr. Jarr,
The purpose of this letter is to bring to your attention certain Uniform Mechanical Code
provisions relating to gas -fired mechanical equipment installed in sleeping rooms of single
family residences. As Administrative Authority for compliance to the Uniform Mechanical
Code for the jurisdiction ofEdmonds, it is appropriate that this letter be issued by my office.
According to City records, Washington Energy Services applied for and obtained a mechanical
permit on your behalf to install two gas fireplace inserts on different floors of your home. The
contractor did not indicate the room types that contained these inserts. Enclosed please find
Uniform Mechanical Code (UMC) Section 304.5 entitled Prohibited Locations. This section of
the UMC specifit ally indicates hazardous locations for the installation of fitel-burning
c lated in sleePing rooms -
equipment. Note, that gas -fired mechanical equipment is strictly regu
Also, please note the exceptions that are permitted by code that allow for such installations.
These UMC provisions are written to protect people sleeping since most people are naturally
more vulnerable in a sleeping state. If a gas leak or other problem occurs, sickness or death is a
potential concern.
The City Building Inspector was called for an inspection on January 31P at your residence.
Upon inspection he noted that one gas fired fireplace insert was installed in a room that
contained a bed. The Inspe correctly identified UMC code provision 304.5, which prohibits
ctor i e
gas fired mechanical equipment to be installed in a sleeping room without a d r ct vent
application. A correction notice was left on site and the contractor followed up with the City in a
meeting held on February 8th. At this meeting, the contractor agreed that the referenced code
provision should be applied since the room was used as a sleeping room. The City suggested
that the contractor contact you to determine the use of the room and apply the appropriate code
provision(s) based on how you, as owner, used the room. The contractor called me February 12'h
and stated that you insisted that although a bed was set up in the room, the true room use was a
rec room not a sleeping room. I followed up with you by phone conversation yesterday and you
were adamant with me that the room is a rec room not a sleeping room. You did however admit
to me that you have two sons who occasionally sleep over in this room.

Be advised, by this letter the City has properly informed you of
chanical equipment in sleeping rooms. No jurisdiction has the ability to monitor the
gas fired me
day to day use of rooms in any private home. You are hereby notified of the risks you pose to
yourself and others by allowing sleeping room use of asroom in which a non -direct vented gas
letter should be interpreted to authorize
fired mechanical unit has been installed. Nothing in thi
sleeping use of such a room and any such use is a violation of the State Building Code and City
Ordinance.

Dear Ms. Graf:
ebruary 14, 2001.
Gary Jarr has asked that I respond to your letter to him dated F
rec
Mr. Jarr made it clear when the two of you spoke that a bed exists in the Jarrs
room to provide a place where family members and others may sleep overnight. He told you
that the bed in that room is occasionally used for that purpose, and that he and his wife intend
intend to continue to use that bed for that purpose. The Jarrs have no intention of changing
the use that they make of that room.
If that makes the Jarrs' rec room a "sleeping room" for purposes of the Uniform
Mechanical Code, so be it. If as a consequence additional measures are necessary to make the
rs' use of it, the Jarrs expect Washington
