For more than thirty years, IAPMO’s standards-developing efforts have primarily focused on plumbing product standards.
This concentration was primarily due to IAPMO members’ expertise from more than 50 years of writing and updating the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC).
Recently, IAPMO’s efforts have broadened to include standards for mechanical products.
Drawing on their years of experience, many IAPMO members have also contributed to the development of the Uniform Mechanical Code (UMC).
IAPMO also publishes standards covering products used in the Recreational Vehicle and Manufactured Housing Industry called IAPMO Trailer Standards.
