Elevator Code Variance -

Hearing Impaired Requirements for Elevator Installations/Modernization

With the adoption of ASME 17.1-2022, effective July 1, 2024, the Oklahoma Department of Labor has determined that the elevator communication device for the hearing impaired, as added in ASME 17.1-2019 (ASME 17.1-2.27.1.1.3 Hearing Impaired & IBC 3001.2), will not be enforced on existing elevator installations and modernization projects in Oklahoma until further notice. Enforcement of this new requirement will resume at a later date, following further review and industry notice.
