Ohhh, couldn't the heads be 8' from each other if 8' is the min spacing?

You can space them at anything you want up to and not less than the maximum/minimum spacing you're calculating for. Since minimum is 1/2 S 18x18 can't exceed 18' between heads, nor more than 9' from the wall, nor be closer than 9' feet to an adjacent head. just make sure the kitchen head is nine feet from the adjacent living room head(s) and it's an 18x18 too.
