I don't believe there is a prohibition, but if you take 2 heads off one
outlet,
you had better verify it hydraulically.

I was always taught when doing an upfit you only replace 1 for 1, meaning if

add a
new arm-over to the branchline for the new head. Now that may have come
from a
spec long long ago but I swore it was also in NFPA, however I don't see it
worded that way in the standard. Any help?

I've seen wording too. I think it is related to above/below, 1/2 nip
permissible (unless seismic), etc, it's involved, but it's there
