Florida Enacts Senate Bill 1190
In the 2022 legislative session, Florida SB 1190, signed into law by Governor Ron DeSantis on June 24, 2022, brought significant updates to Florida statute § 633.202 (18). These changes became effective on July 1.
Presently, all buildings, whether new or existing, are required to adhere to the public safety communications coverage requirements outlined in the Florida Fire Prevention Code.
Starting January 2025, it is mandatory for all existing high-rise commercial and existing high-rise apartment buildings to adhere to the in-building communications coverage requirements outlined in the Florida Fire Prevention Code. Additionally, permits for compliance must be applied for by January 2024.
In-Building Cellular, Radio and Public Safety Coverage Solutions from Industrial Communications
Improve Safety and Productivity With Bi-Directional Amplifiers & Distributed Antenna Systems & Services
In-building coverage is a problem that affects everyone. Whether you’re a first responder using your radio in a building, a customer using their cell phone, or an employee communicating in your facility, having reliable indoor communication is critical for safety and productivity. If radio coverage in your facility is a problem, then your staff can’t get their job done effectively, and it could also cause safety issues. The problem is that many companies are finding it difficult to find reliable and dependable radio coverage in buildings. This means that your staff will be unable to communicate efficiently, causing lost productivity and safety concerns. Signal interference is the number one reason why people have difficulty staying connected inside buildings. It’s also why first responders can’t communicate effectively with each other or dispatch during emergencies. This compromises everyone’s safety and security.

Strengthen Emergency Response with IFC 510-Compliant
ERRS Enhancements
Achieve Compliance and Safety with Advanced ERRCS Systems
Meeting IFC 510 standards is not just a legal requirement but a vital component of a comprehensive safety strategy. Effective communication is essential for coordinating emergency responses, managing evacuations, and ensuring the safety of both occupants and responders. Without reliable radio communication, emergency personnel may face delays, misunderstandings, and increased risks while navigating and addressing incidents.
Implementing an Emergency Responder Radio Communication System (ERRS) to meet IFC 510 standards is crucial for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of emergency response operations within buildings. Modern construction materials, such as concrete and metal, often impede radio signals, creating dead zones where communication is unreliable or impossible. This can be particularly problematic in critical areas like stairwells, basements, and large interior spaces. By adhering to IFC 510 standards, an ERRCS amplifies and distributes radio signals by installing and optimizing a network of bi-directional amplifiers (BAs), distributed antenna systems (DAS), and backup power supplies to ensure reliable radio communication throughout a building eliminating dead zones and ensuring that first responders can maintain clear and consistent communication during emergencies. Regular testing and maintenance are also essential to ensure the system remains effective and compliant with relevant safety standards.
An ERRS designed and implemented according to IFC 510 standards provides the necessary infrastructure for robust communication, enhancing the ability of first responders to perform their duties efficiently and safely. Strengthening this communication infrastructure significantly contributes to the overall safety, preparedness, and resilience of the building and its occupants.
