Quite honestly you should throw this back to the owner/GC to have a mechanical engineer or vendor determine what is required per code.
There are several conditions to be considered. Craig L.

I have a job where they have a small furnace to create molten metal for castings. There is a hood (2x8ft) above the area where they take the used “probes” and clean them off. This duct work goes outside to a dust collector. How do I determine if sprinklers are needed in the hood and ductwork?
