I THINK SOME OF THE HOUSE ARE OVER 30
BUT IN MY AREA I HAVE VISITED NEW HOUSES --YOU DON'T NEED SPRINKLER SYSTEM
IF YOU HAVE MONEY YOU CAN INSTALL ONE

That was what I thought.In Carli Effective January 1, 2011, the California Building Standards Commission approved the State Fire Marshal's Building, Fire and Residential Code adoption packages for the 2010 California Building Standards Codes, including its requirements for residential fire sprinklers in all new one-and two-family dwellings and townhome construction statewide.
This is true for the three states I listed,
I think this would have to do with Wild fires,I dunno.
Dont forget,Im quoting from the state law, so definitely if you dont have this no building approval for your plan and build.

SORRY MY BROTHER'S HOUSE IN MARYLAND DOESN'T HAVE SPRINKLER SYSTEM
HOUSES I VISITED IN WASHINGTON dc DOESN'T HAVE SPRINKLER SYSTEM
A CITIES INSPECTED A RENTER PROPERTY LAST YEAR THIS YEAR THEY WANT CARBON DETECTOR INSTALLED
IF YOU BUILDING A HOUSE THE PEOPLE YOU DEAL WITH IS THE CITY AND THEIR CRAZY INSPECTORS

DO you know when these houses where built?are they not more than 7 years old ?

Jaideyone:
your airheads keep shouting failure of PMB while still supporting the failure of JEG who squandered our commonwealth. Yes the current FG has failed to perform a near impossible ask of bettering the lives of Nigerians with half the income of the predecessor who wasted money that could have built infrastructure. My problem with wailers like you is that you try to rub bubus failure in our face while still trying to make us believe Jonathan turned Nigeria to America. The joke is on you pro-PDP cvnts. Shame on you

it would have been wise to quote me on what I said instead of what others said, where in my post did I make assumptions of PMB and GEJ?
And then you start using fancy words calling me cunt etc, well done

MIDWEST
WHAT YOU HAVE ARE CITIES INSPECTORS
CITIES ENFORCE THIS LAWS
THERE ARE STATE LAW
MY BROTHER GOT SMART TELLING CITY INSPECTOR HE MET ALL CONDITIONS
GUESS WHAT STATE LAW WAS USED

But I read somewhere California,Maryland and Washington DC made it mandatory??

GoodFaith:
LET ME TELL YOU WHAT IS A MUST IN MOST STATE
SMOKE DETECTOR IF THE HOUSE IS INSPECTED
IF IT IS A RENTED PROPERTY-- SMOKE DETECTOR IN EACH ROOM
NOT RENTED PROPERTY ONE IN EACH FLOOR
SOME CITIES WANT YOU TO HAVE carbon detector

Bro when you said most states,could you kindly name such states?

EgunMogaji:

Lot of house? have sprinkler system-- Misinformation
Really Please HOMES?
0ne out of 30,000
sprinkler system for lawns? --Yes

In the UK its not a requirement, if you check that tower that got Burnt in Chelsea has no sprinkler, however in some states in the US its mandatory, it was written into law in those states, you can check, they are even listed to boost the sale values of the said houses.

Jaideyone:
what do you know? Ignorant fellow. Nigeria is not the country that had a recession in the last 2yrs. A country's income for slash by half and you want the man in charge to diversify and perform magic with the snap of a finger? You're more foolishly than I initially concluded. Like I said Buhari made mistakes but the difference between dvmb@ss wailers and balanced critics like me is we know when to give credit. If the FG is going after tax evaders then it's the right decision. Learn to criticise like an intelligent person even if you are not.

BTW I want I want your answer. If your salary gets slashed by half will your savings or net worth still grow at the same rate? That's the meaning of recession. Even Saudi with almost 500b dollars in foreign reserve felt the effect of drop in oil price. More diversified economies felt the effect not to talk of Nigeria that gets 75% of it's forex from crude oil

There is no need making xcuses for the FG, they have failed period, we just hope next time the then FG will just move us 4ward a bit, how they will do it up to them, thats thier JOB.

The accident occured along Kogi-Abuja Expressway.
The Nysc Corper; Nwadike Chioma, gave her personal account of the accident below
She wrote thus:
"GRATEFUL HEART
please join me and thank the Lord for sparing my life and that of others, in the pictures below is an accident I was involved in enroute Kogi-Abuja Expressway. The trailer bearing a container failed break few minutes away from the bridge, our driver noticed it and increased his speed in other to avoid the trailer, but unfortunately the trailer was at a more higher speed, getting to the top of the bridge it rammed into our bus and a smaller car in front...hitting it twice and pushing it towards the edge, I was seated at the front ooo...the front side of the bus was compressed, I thought i've lost my legs, I pulled and pulled my legs and it came out....i jumped to the back and jumped out through the broken window(how i did that without any assistance still beats me), thank God too the container it was carrying didn't fall on the bus, that would have been it, we were whiskers away from the river, another hit by the trailer would have sent the bus tumbling inside the river but God said no, Mercy said NO, I was saved, unscratched, I was just crying when I looked at how close we were to death, road safety officials rushed down with some other life savers, they were fully on ground to pack bodies but were surprised that there was not even a single one, 'Corper stop crying and thank God ooo' they said, though still in shock and traumatised am more amazed how much God loves me, to Him be all the glory forever more in Jesus name. Amen!"

EgunMogaji:

This is for my garage apartment. For the main house I'm going to be on the ground to supervise my own creation that I designed in SketchUp.

Una too like long thing, HAjji don promise to show me the Engineer wey do his own security proof, we only need Broom and palmwine.any intruder will sweep TDB no long thing

Water mist is different from fm200.
FM200 is being phased out due to longterm health issues. In fact it has a deadline date.

The mist suppression is very high pressure water system that passes the water through tiny holes to produce very tiny droplets to fall down essentially as a mist rather than as a sprinkler/shower

I think who ever designed this had electrics in mind.But kudos to them

FIRS is a Federal Government Agency established by the Law. Their functions are stipulated in the Act that established them. You are free to research in order to be fully informed so as not to mislead people. It is also important to state that whether an incorporated company changes name or re-brand or not, it cannot in anyway prevent FIRS from carrying out their duty.

I never said they are not established by law, I merely drew you to the fact that they dont enforce debt recovery, this is very simple.The only authorized body to retrieve public debt bailiffs from the High court.
If the owner disregard they sealing and continue trading what is FIRS going to do? can they physically stop them answer is NO, so who stops them? The Beliefs backed by the Police, where do they get such other court house right procedures was for FIRS to take the owners to court secure a Judgment to demand the said SUM.Once this is done the assets can be seized by bailiffs.
Nigerians should be wise,there is no reason for FIRS official to be on site rather they want bribe, They FIRS Enforce NO LAW,they are body set up to receive and manage TAX.
Plz read this link for knowledge base, I have Biz withing Nigeria and I have dealt with these tax idiots multiple times.Read this if you got the time

Franknerd:
Tnx for ur response! It's Ford Edge 2011. Does it mean I cannot do anything about d lost keys except producing new ones? With all d shipping fees and port charges, the shipping line cannot take responsibility for lost items entrusted in their care? I really want to get to the root of this!

Meanwhile how much would a new set of keys cost?

Ofcos you can do something about it but in the meantime, you want your car up and running.I dunno how much but Im sure they can cutit, my advice is for you to buy a blank key and have them cut it in Nigeria.

Visit Edmunds.com . I love land rover products but the only one I dare buy is a defender which ironically is their best product, others have gremlins of all sorts. My friend's LR3 over heated for almost a year,we replaced a lot of parts, Sooperrescue worked on the car yet the problem persisted. You won't se such issues in a Gwagon. People have had to replace parts on their 2016 land rover discovery with parts from the older discovery,reliability has ways been an issue with Range Rovers. I'd buy a gwagon rather than a range rover any day.

you are talking of Nigeria where the vast majority of people use wrong service parts to service thier cars.Check the thread here on repairs and see how people fry thier engines
PS I own a aRange rover sport bought Brand new since 2012.Overheating is not a default rather lack of maintenance on the part of the owner.If you own a Range rover and cant spend N200K to service it you have no Biz owning one.

chizzy161:
Please be sure of what you say. It is obvious you are not well informed.

Im indeed sure of what Im saying, do you have anything to say as to canter what I stated
Since when did FIRS agent become beliefs
PHCN can cut your light take thier light cos thats waht they provide to you FIRS do not have that hence its the Job of the court to effect retrieval of monies owed.
Let me enlighten you more, what happens if next week the Biz changes its name and re brand, what are they FIRS official going to do??

Until PMB is admitted to General Hospital Asokor,
I reserve my comment

ivolt:
Why do you guys hate law enforcement and a functioning agency with passion ?
The companies were owing tax and they were shut down
but you had to bring north into it.

Let us start from the beginning, who shut them down?

Costello559:
Cbn should open all the openable forex... And stop doing their buying and selling shit to boost the economy.....

Nawa for this government oooo.... Nawa for naija government too

Howmuch do you think we have in our reserve? or you are still locked in this them say government

Please permit me to derail this thread a bit.

I bought a car at an auction site in USA nd was shipped to Nigeria through Grimaldi. When d car arrived here, the car keys were missing meanwhile the keys were there at the auction site and the driver dat took the car to the port in the States confirmed that the keys were there.

Surprisingly, I am getting this kind of trash from Grimaldi dat I hav always believed is reliable.

How do I go about this to recover the car keys? Any suggestions, pls! Thanks

Name and model of car?
Cut your keys,
I think the Keys where misplaced at the shipping ground after it was delivered to the parking lot at the port.
Once your car gets driven into the the ship no one goes there, the keys are left at the ignition.
Loading ur car with fork lift incurs xtra cost,you did not get this bill cos most definitely the keys where lost btw parking lot and ship parking space.

How much is Charcoal and spices making to pay such an amount as tax?

Over time? how long 50 years??

The Federal Inland Revenue Service, FIRS, on Monday, sealed four companies in Lagos and Port Harcourt over their failure to meet their tax obligations totalling N630 million.
The affected firms include Charcoal and Spices Restaurant Limited, GRA, Port Harcourt, and Cioscon Nigerian Limited at 14 Aba Road, Port Harcourt.
The leader of the FIRS enforcement team, Mrs. Anita Erinne, sealed both companies after showing a warrant of distraint to officials of the company.
Charcoal and Spices Restaurant Limited owes N12,388,979.50 tax debt while Cioscon Nigerian Ltd has a tax liability amounting to N479,203,464.43 from 2014 to 2016 which the firm has failed to remit.
Erinne told the defaulting firms that the companies’ premises will be unsealed when they clear their outstanding tax bills.
She warned the workers not to unseal or tamper with the FIRS seal until the debts are cleared, stating that any attempt to remove the seals will be a contravention of the law.
Erinne, however, noted that the firms have been officially notified of their indebtedness to FIRS, stating that all the companies’ taxes should be paid before their premises could be unsealed.
In Lagos, the enforcement team of the FIRS sealed Joza Global Service situated at 18, Ribadu Road, Ikoyi, Lagos over a tax debt of over N30.6 million. The FIRS team also sealed-off Spog Petrochemicals Limited situated at 50d, Glover Road, Ikoyi, Lagos over a tax debt of N105.5 million.
Last week, the FIRS sealed off the premises of tax-owing companies in Abuja. Among these was an educational facility, Fanaks International Schools in the Asokoro area of the federal capital. The school was owing a total of N976,133.57 in Company Income Tax (CIT), Education Tax (EDT) and Withholding Tax (WHT).
Also sealed was Hotel Bahamas International, which was owing N694,045.29 in CIT, EDT, WHT for the 2015 assessment year. Another hospitality facility, Dabiyi Hotels and Suites in Kurudu was sealed over tax liabilities totaling N4,191,996.26 carried over from the 2014 assessment year.

This is why we live i n a ZOO, why would FIRS official be on ground to seal a Biz premises? well answer to receive bribe
IS it not the job of the court to issue a warrant and sending beliefs down there to retrieve the debts?
Nigerians always doing things backward.
A wise Biz man will simply go to court and get an injunction and re open his/her Biz.

I think you need to provide pic of land, dimensions of land and plan, pros in the house will come to ur aid

A sprinkler might not be very effective in the kitchen for 2 reasons:

First, there are usually too many flammable materials in the kitchen eg plastics, flour, oils, the kitchen cabinets itself, etc which might easily escalate the fire before detection occurs

secondly, cooking oil fires burn at an elevated temperature that atomizes any water that comes into contact with it into oxygen and hydrogen which in turn feeds the fire. So a sprinkler system that is activated in the event of cooking oil fire will destroy the kitchen

Nahh no one puts sprinkler in a residential house where people live, Even when its i n a complex it o n the hall way or common area.For those reasons you just mentioned are same reasons you cant have it inside your house,its canter productive.

GoodFaith:
managing fire in kitchen
Decking in the kitchen and fire extinguisher
POP in the kitchen and fire extinguisher
You can't completely take out the risk but manage the risk
fire alarm hydrant sprinkler system are usually for big units-- cost is a big issue

Correct, me Im trying to steer to containment if fire brakes out.In the real world when fire brakes out you are meant to take off lol.
Sprinklers are for commercial Buildings or complex.
