Brian, Don't assume that because you have a wood framed building that you must sprinkler the attic. Check with the engineer of record to see if this system is supposed to be a 13 or 13R. Secondly you can't run over an ordinary hazard room in a light hazard occupancy with cpvc unless the room is 400 ft or less. And lastly CPVC is not listed for a dry system and you can definitely not use it. A read of the blazemaster install and specification manual is highly recommended.

I know that it is listed and approved for light hazard areas which is 90% of the project, what do you do for the other 10%? Do I need to run steel for the Kitchen, Janitor's Closet, and small Storage closet? Also, since this is a wood framed building I need to sprinkle the Attic but since it cannot be used for storage it is light hazard as well, any reason I can't use CPVC for the dry system as well?
