Tim, First I am working under the IFC 2012 that requires sprinkler systems to be electronically monitored with supervising central station.
Per Section NFPA 72, 2010 10.15 and the definitions of a Fire Alarm Control Unit and Dedicated Function Fire Alarm Control Unit, a smoke detector is required to be located above the fire pump control panel.
