That is indeed the INTENT but if one looks at the literal text, it doesn't say that. It says in 9.3 "with a pump". It doesn't say fire pump. Then in 9.4 it says - where a FIRE pump is installed, it shall be in accordance with NFPA 20. IF one assumes the use of pump and fire pump is synonymous, you get to NFPA 20. This was cleaned up for the next edition such that it is explicit that the pump must a fire pump.

Justin,

If the system in question falls under NFPA 13R then the pump needs to be
installed in accordance with NFPA 20.
NFPA 20 calls for UL listed equipment. Have you contacted the pump supplier
for assistance?
