Hello All, Well this all started when I did not have any excess pressure for a safety margin and informed the General Contractor a small fire pump would be required. He decided to take the drawings to another sprinkler contractor for a second opinion, This other sprinkler contractor stated it could be done without a pump. At this time the owner of the company I work for and the general contractor decided to sub out a "redesign" of the system to this other sprinkler contractor (we still get to do the install). This other sprinkler company supplied the drawings, calcs, COC, and Spec sheets.
