To carry out its responsibilities under the Act, HUD has issued the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards (the Standards), 24 CFR 3280. The Department has also issued the Manufactured Home Procedural and Enforcement Regulations (the Regulations), 24 CFR 3282, to enforce these standards. The Regulations incorporate an exemption from HUD regulation for recreational vehicles (RV) if they are: built on a single chassis; 400 square feet or less when measured at their largest horizontal projections; self-propelled or permanently towable by a light duty truck; and designed primarily not for use as a permanent dwelling but as temporary living quarters for recreational, camping, travel, or seasonal use.
Through recent rulemaking, HUD is adopting a recommendation of the Manufactured Housing Consensus Committee (MHCC), a Federal Advisory Committee, and is clarifying the definition of recreational vehicle (RV) and modifying it to require certification with either the American National Standards Instituteâs (ANSI) standard for Park Model Recreational Vehicles (PMRV), A119.5â15 or the National Fire Protection Associationâs NFPA 1192, Standard on Recreational Vehicles, 2015 Edition. Since Park Model RVs built to ANSI A119.5-15 may exceed the RV exemptionâs 400 square foot threshold, a manufacturer must post notice in the home that the structure is only designed for recreational purposes and is not designed as a primary residence or for permanent occupancy.
