Question

Is it the intent of 1204.1 to apply to ALL spaces.
Or can the exception be applied to spaces that ARE
NOT INTENDED for human comfort such as an
warehouse area.

NO

Commentary

The space in question is not intended for human comfort. Therefore, the exception to 1204.1 applies. However, the occupancy must still comply with the Florida Building Code Mechanical Section 401.2.
