So it sounds like the AHJ found something that someone added after the CofO was 
issued at some point in time?

Existing facility that has been undergoing renovations. However, the 
renovations are not in the area of the walk-in coolers/freezers. The owner took 
an existing 3-story building and put apartments on the 3rd floor. The 
coolers/freezers are on the 1st floor.

Subject: RE: Walk-in Type Freezers & Coolers

If it's a new installation what does it matter when this was implemented?

So is this a new project or existing with renovations or what?  More specifics 
are needed.

Subject: Walk-in Type Freezers & Coolers

NFPA's Formal Interpretation 78-6 says that walk-in type
freezers/coolers require sprinklers because they are part of the
premises. NFPA 13 requires that sprinklers be installed throughout the
premises in accordance with Section 4-1.1.  Does anyone know when this
became an NFPA requirement? I have heard the mid 80s mentioned. We have
a building owner in a tussle with the AHJ.

 

Thanks,
