ASSE International is dedicated to the preservation of public health and safety through the use of proper plumbing and piping practices and approved materials. In 2006, the Board of Directors approved the development of a

11、 professional qualifications standard for plumbing-based fire suppression systems. The 2013 revision of the standard replaced the term “plumbing-based” with “potable water.” With the proliferation of residential fire suppression systems being installed in compliance with the National Fire Protection

12、 Association Standard (NFPA) 13D, there were requests for ASSE to develop a standard series for residential plumbing-based fire protection system installers and inspectors as part of their portfolio of Professional Qualifications Standards, which includes the ASSE/IAPMO/ANSI Series 5000, Cross-Conne
