Construction: other; installation of a private residence vertical lift; regulate. Amends secs. 3 & 4 of 1967 PA 227 (MCL 408.803 & 408.804) & adds sec. 14b.

Summary

The legislation amends Michigan’s elevator statutes to define a “private residence vertical lift” and requires such lifts to be certified safe by a nationally recognized testing laboratory using ASME standards. It also limits the department’s ability to require a pit, machine room, or traditional hoistway if the lift meets those certification criteria. The changes affect homeowners, lift manufacturers, and installers of residential vertical lifts.
