Under a non-combustible house, 13D, the first floor is slated as a garage of 7,000 sqft. The owner has requested an add for a dry system to protect the garage.
I know some will immediately say that this should be in accordance with 13 due to the size. I agree that the intent in 13D was probably geared toward 1-3 cars in a garage and not a dozen or more. However.... The dilemma is this: Not enough water for a 13 system. There is no foreseeable way to get water delivered in 15 seconds per 13D. I think they would be better off to heat the garage.. Does anyone have definitive info on this issue? Greg McGahan Operations Manager Living Water Fire Protection 1160 McKenzie Road P.O.
