Why Servicing and Fire Separations Matter in Multiplex Projects
Two technical issues that often decide whether a multiplex is feasible.
Servicing
More units need more water supply, sewer capacity and electrical service. Upgrading these connections can be one of the largest and least visible costs.
Fire separations
The building code requires rated separations between units and protected exits. In conversions, achieving these within an existing structure can affect layouts and budget.
Address them early
Reviewing servicing and fire-safety requirements during evaluation avoids costly redesign later.
