I am still in debt to Mr. Joe Heinrich who introduced me to this forum. It has been invaluable.

One of our designers missed the requirement that in 13 you need to sprinkler the closets. He made the mistake that a lot make and missed the "hotels and motels" part of the standard. So everything is piped, the fire marshal approved the plans without the sprinklers, but rejected it (as he should) when it came to final inspection. What we are doing is changing the sprinklers in the closet to 4.2 K and everything works with a 9 psi safety factor. This is the best part of forum. I had not even thought about changing the closet sprinklers until Ken H of Rowe Sprinkler contacted me by email with the suggestion. I funny how when you get crunched, you sometimes miss the obvious solutions. That's the great part of talking and meeting the people on the forum.

Any idea why the architect wants QR sprinks?
