In a recent Q&A on the FacilityCare website, consultant Brad Keyes answered a question about the storage of flammable liquids.
Q: It is my understanding that you are allowed to have only 10 gallons of flammable chemicals in a smoke compartment without having a fire cabinet. Does this amount change if it’s a one-hour fire-rated, fully sprinkled room?
A: According to section 9.4.3 of NFPA 30 Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code, 2012 edition, the storage of Class IB flammable liquids (which are the typical flammable liquids you would find in a hospital, such as ethyl alcohol) is limited to 5.3 gallons (20 L) per container made of metal or approved plastic and safety cans.
