Craig- The owner is very skeptical of there being enough water supply without adding a tank, we provided calculations for the sprinkler system and now he wants a civil engineer to provide fire calc's as well. The civil guy was asking why we didn't include any extra psi drop for the outside hose allowance.

I'm sure it's the way I'm trying to explain it that's not making any sense to him, can one of you more versed in the English language help me out and put it in layman's terms for me?
