Recently had a customer in NYC with his furnace and hot water heaters enclosed in a special concrete-block room in the basement with a self-closing fire-rated steel door. Somebody also had the idea to hang the phone system on a wall in that room, with numerous non-firestopped penetrations of I what I assume are fire-rated walls/ceilings for the phone cables. Is this a violation of code, as well as sanity (because who would want to work in such a warm, stuffy place)?
