WAC 296-150M-0540   How do I obtain a fire safety certificate to site my pre-HUD home.  In order to install a pre-HUD home in Washington, you will need to obtain and pass an inspection by the department. To apply for a fire safety certificate, you must:

     (1) Complete an alteration permit form and a fire safety certificate application. We will provide you the forms on request.

     (2) A fire safety preinspection checklist can be obtained at your local labor and industries office or on the web at http://www.lni.wa.gov/tradeslicensing/fas.

     (3) Submit the completed forms to us, with the first hour of inspection fee and the site placement form. Alterations requiring more than one inspection shall have the first hour of inspection paid to the department prior to each additional inspection. The following fees will need to be paid: Electrical fire safety, structural fire safety, insignia fees for fire safety. (See WAC 296-150M-3000, Manufactured/mobile home fees.)

     (4) Any other alterations to the home that have not been previously inspected and approved by the department will cause the approval of this inspection to be denied.

     (5) Once we approve the inspection, we will provide you with a completed alteration permit and fire safety certificate.

Note:

After the home has been sited, any subsequent move will require a separate fire safety certificate.
