Fire Suppression Sprinkler Systems:
On November 25th, 2015, Salt Lake City Planning and Salt Lake City Fire Departments approved a 12 year phase-in program for full fire suppression throughout the Aztec building. Travelers Insurance has also approved the 12 year plan. Installation will begin with the common area sprinkler and smoke alarm systems in February 2016.
After the common area system is installed, unit owners will be required to complete the installation of the fire sprinkler suppression system inside their own units according to the schedule listed below. Each unit's fire sprinkler system will be connected just outside the unit's door, to the system installed in the common area hallways in 2016. The cost for the installation of the individual unit's fire sprinkler system will be covered by the respective unit owner. Cost for the installation can be lowered if all the residents on the scheduled floor(s) coordinate the work simultaneously with the sprinkler contractors. No unit owner may "opt out" of this program. Complete building fire suppression is required by the city.
This program provides all unit owners a minimum of five years to prepare for this expense.
Pricing for 2024 for the installation of fire sprinkler systems for various units are shown below. These estimates do not include sheetrock removal, repair, or repainting of affected areas:
$9,450 One bedroom units:
