I'm designing a 2 story, 3,000 sf building (parking on Level 1, dental clinic on Level 2) with an elevator, in Florida. Per FBC Chapter 9, I don't need a fire alarm. (Group B, not an ambulatory care facility). However, am I missing something and do need one?

I've seen alarm plans in a few situations that didn't require them, turned out it was an insurance requirement.
