I am looking to do an evaluation of a warehouse (originally manufacturing .20/1500) that has now been bought by an oil distributor. When I walked around looking, all kinds of red flags went off. I am now concerned that we cannot get there from here. Gut says this is outside of sprinkler protection. So I want to be sure before I say we cannot help you. Bulk of product is standard motor oil in non-relieving drums (55gal), stored on racks, mostly 3 high. Also contained in same warehouse throughout is solid pile storage to around 12 of cases of 1qt (plastic) containers that you would purchase from your favorite reseller. Mixed in are gallon containers of anti-freeze stored solid pile as the 1qt containers of oil. Not to mention the moderate placement of Varsol and starter fluid here and there. This space appears to be just under 80,000 Sq Ft. Of course there is no containment or other controlling measurers built into floor or racks. The 1, 1, 1¼ branch lines looked awful lonely at the roof..
