Yes because that's what the building code provides for if the building is fully sprinklered. It can be arranged either as a standpipe system or as hose valves supplied by the sprinkler system.
Steve L. -----Original Message----- From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Brian Harris Sent: Friday, May 06, 2016 12:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Hose Valves for Stage What's the consensus for the required hose valve size on a high school stage? I've done several schools and the AHJ has always allowed 1-1/2" valves since they would only be used in a "clean-up" type capacity. A/E now wants me to change them to 2-1/2" valves with a 1-1/2" threaded reducer. Make sense to anybody? Brian Harris, CET BVS Systems Inc.
