Installing an egress window does more than make your childcare safer. It creates a lighter space and makes circulation
available in your basement. In addition it assures your clients that in case of an emergency you have taken all the necessary
steps to ensure their child's safety.
All B and C registered homes in Iowa that are using basement space for childcare are required to have at least one Egress
Window for fire emergencies, which is no more than 44 inches from the ground with permanent steps and meets minimum size requirements.
