This marks the third time the UPC and UMC have earned the designation; the 2003 and 2006 editions were similarly recognized. ANSI accreditation signifies that the procedures used by standards setting organizations such as IAPMO meet the Institute's requirements for openness, balance, consensus and due process. This process brings together volunteers representing a variety of viewpoints and interests to achieve consensus on plumbing and mechanical practices. The UPC and UMC are the only plumbing and mechanical codes of practice to be named American National Standards. Introduced in Los Angeles in 1928 and formally published as the Uniform Plumbing Code in 1945, the UPC is developed to govern the installation and inspection of plumbing systems as a means of promoting the public's health, safety and welfare. Later published by IAPMO in 1967, the UMC provides the same governance for mechanical (HVAC, combustion, exhaust, refrigeration) systems. Developed and subsequently republished at the conclusion of each three-year code cycle, the UPC and UMC are designed to provide consumers with safe plumbing, heating and mechanical systems while, at the same time, allowing latitude for innovation and new technologies. NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE!

  • How Codes and Standards Protect Our Society
    How codes and standards protect our society www.iapmo.com 1 2 www.iapmo.com LETTER FROM THE CEO IAPMO is the go-to codes source odes and standards provide the necessary solid foundation for consistent building practic- es. Without them, products manufactured by different companies may not fit together, and C structures would likely struggle to survive the harsh environment. IAPMO continues to be the go-to source for codes and standards development for jurisdictions globally. With a dedicated team, we advance the publication of documents that improve countless lives. The Uniform Codes have been revised with up-to-date provisions, and IAPMO standards have been updated for the safe use and application of products. Code development cycles were completed, state codes published, and well-respected IAPMO standards were published, all to protect the public’s health and welfare. 2021 UPC and UMC cycle completed Completing the code change cycle for the 2021 UPC and UMC was a daunting task to say the least. With an accelerated schedule, the Code Development staff was resilient when faced with fast-approaching deadlines and multiple proposals coming from all aspects of the industry. The team answered all questions, and all comments were processed in a timely and efficient manner. The UPC improved with the implementation of an appendix to address Legionella and scald risk potential. The Legionella Task Group produced the first code-enforceable language within a national code, providing for the implementation of key provisions from ASHRAE 188 and ASHRAE Guideline 12. Legionella bacteria can cause serious types of pneumonia and fevers, so it is crucial that a code like the UPC provides jurisdictions with enforceable language.

Its Uniform Plumbing Code© is routinely cited as a versatile and easy-to-apply document that can be tailored to fit almost any nation’s needs for ensuring drinking water safety and sanitary waste disposal. Each of The IAPMO Group’s business units is specially designed to support these goals within any nation adopting a plumbing code. IAPMO — Developer of four model codes — Uniform Plumbing Code©, Uniform Mechanical Code©, Uniform Solar Energy Code©, Uniform Swimming Pool, Spa and Hot Tub Code©; the former two designated as American National Standards.
