From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Travis Mack, SET Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2017 11:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Grow Facilities This is obviously outside of our scope and I am punting this back up the chain. But, has anyone that is sprinklering these MJ facilties run into this: "Provide a letter from a state licensed PE or Consulting Firm approved by the City of XXXXXXX, that supports the fire sprinkler design assumptions. The letter shall be signed (wet) and address the design assumptions that includes the use of CO2 enrichment, flammable liquids/gasses, and hazardous waste and the impact that includes the overall Heat Release Rate (HRR) and the ability of the fire sprinkler system to suppress a fire.
