Thank you for such a good question  and answer. Are there any comments  or 
studies about the influence of cold air [air conditioning ] blowing air at the 
sprinkler? Would the cold air delay the response of the sprinkler?

Typical ceiling diffuser is blowing air downward, (actually in an
mbrella type pattern, but who's to argue)  A sidewall or side of duct
ounted type would be considered horizontal.
By the definition and the directions in the table it looks like you need
o be at least 1'-0" from the edge of the diffuser so if you're 1'-1"
ou should be good to go with an Ordinary Temp.  You're mighty close
hough.

ubject: Sprinklers located next to diffusers
Looking at Table 8.3.2.5a in 13-2002 there is a downward and horizontal
iffuser.  For the standard 2x2 diffuser in a suspended ceiling which is
he correct to use.  It is blowing air downward and horizontal?  Can I
nstall an ordinary temp pendant sprinkler 1'-1" away from one of these
iffusers?  
Thanks
