Does a window well that is 44 inches deep require a ladder or steps?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only if it is over 48 inches deep

  4. Only if used as a primary egress

The correct answer is: No

A window well that is 44 inches deep does not require a ladder or steps according to the building code regulations. Specifically, the regulation states that a ladder or steps are necessary when a window well is deeper than 44 inches. Therefore, since the well in question is only 44 inches deep, it does not meet the threshold that would require additional safety measures such as a ladder or steps for egress. In contrast, other options suggest either a requirement at a shallower depth or specific conditions for egress which do not apply in this situation. Understanding this requirement is essential for ensuring safety while adhering to building regulations.
