Removable Panels - Fl Product Approval

Question

Is it the intent of the Florida Building Code, Building, to require Florida Product Approval be demonstrated for removable panels being used in Category II and III Sunrooms?

No

Commentary

The wind break panels are not covered by the Product Approval Rule. The question was taken to the Product Approval POC in the past and they were ruled outside the purview of the rule as they are not structural in nature.
