I don't know what the specific conditions are of this application, but that statement is not accurate. We have done several projects where apartments are two-story and there is only access on alternate floors. Believe me, every stairwell in most buildings is a required stair.

Since this stair does not have access then it would not be a required stairway. Therefore hose valve not required. I have run into this before on a high rise with 3 stairs on the lower 8 levels and 2 stairs on upper levels. One of the stairs did not have access on the lower 8 floors, therefore no hose valve.

The ANNEX material shows a hose valve located with respect to the floor access, since there is no floor access would the hose valve be required for this level?
