IL plumbing code has a newly finished revision. Of course, IL doesn't have the money to print it

Calif. Plumbing Code is based closely on the most recent UPC ( with matrix tables for applicability and changes). SO we are on the 2007 CA code based on 2006 UPC They generally pop out a new one every 3 years

Several versions of the City of Chicago code mostly, but I occasionally worked somewhere that used IL code, I always just did the job to Chicago code, never a problem.

No. Bob, Kevin, and a few others just finished writing it this fall. Look for it in 2011.

Some highlights are :
Pex will no longer need to be oversized
horizontal dry venting of FD's

Default Gas Code

I am looking for literature online on the national gas code. I am going to buy the book, but also like to look online when I have a question. Can anyone help me.

Thanks,
