With the limited fire loading, you could ask if AHJ would agree to OH1
instead of II ?

And- what Dave said.

Thank you.

If you can't get under the curve because of hose allowance, then I'd have
you provide OH II for the room and reduce the hose allowance to obtain a
safety factor.

I don't see many projects where 29 gallons make an impact. On the few that I
do see we have allowed a reduction in hose demand in favor of sprinkler
protection. Most fires at sprinkler protected buildings are out by the time
the first responders arrive and no hose demand is needed for suppression
activities.
