Recent amendments to Ontario Fire Code (O.Reg 213/07) Subsection 7.2.2.2 (Elevators), requires building owners to notify building occupants and the Fire Department if a Firefighters' elevator is out of service and not operational. This applies to where the firefighters' elevator is not operational for more than 24 hours. These amendments are effective July 1, 2019.
To report a Firefighers' elevator currently out of service, property management staff (i.e. landlord, property owner, superintendent), must advise Fire Services.
