Fire Sprinkler System Permit in Farr West, Utah

Fire protection is provided to Farr West by Weber Fire District (WFD), a special fire district headquartered in Farr West that also serves Hooper, Huntsville, Marriott-Slaterville, West Haven, Uintah, and unincorporated Weber County.

Tips

  • Fire sprinkler permitting in Farr West runs through Weber Fire District, NOT the Farr West City Building Department — WFD is a separate special fire district headquartered in Farr West that also serves Hooper, Huntsville, Marriott-Slaterville, West Haven, Uintah, and unincorporated Weber County.
  • Both plan review and permit fees scale by the number of sprinkler heads, not by square footage — a 21-100-head system pays $100 for plan review and $165 for the permit (2 inspections included), while a 501+ head system pays $400 and $660 respectively.
  • A separate $65.00 routine inspection fee applies to Fire Sprinkler, Kitchen Hood System, and Fire Alarm System inspections outside the initial installation permit process, per WFD's Inspections fee table.
