I will stick my neck out to say that I have used 5.6 and K=8 sprinklers to reduce flow in ducts and plenums vs. the main booth area. They can't really be mixed with1/2" and 3/4" IPT. Any criticisms?

Due to the geometry of the pit and exhaust plenum. The sprinklers in there are covering about 36 square feet per sprinkler. Any insight would be appreciated.
