I don't have the exact model yet but the manufacturer is Captive Aire. I meant approved/listed in the sense "as a hood system" not as a part of a fire sprinkler system.

Tysinger Sent: Thursday, April 20, 2017 2:06 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Hood System - Question [EXTERNAL] Good afternoon all, Apparently, there is a standalone approved/listed type of hood suppression system for kitchens that uses water as the extinguishing agent. Within their data sheet it states that it requires a supervised water source "or" that it may be tied into the fire sprinkler system. It has a minimum required starting water pressure of 30psi and "IF" it is supplied/tied into the sprinkler system then it would most definitely have to be accounted for in the hydraulics. But, it is obviously not a part of the fire sprinkler system or NFPA 13. My first thought is that regardless of their data sheet, it shouldn't be allowed per NFPA 13. Am I thinking correctly? Wouldn't it be considered a non-system component and not allowed? [cid:[email protected]] Eric V.
