Yes, interested in who is requesting ESFR.  Is this a storage area?  The last 
several FM jobs I have done for storage areas have been based on their data 
sheets that require a given number of sprinklers at a given pressure.  There 
was nothing about density.

So who’s specifying the ESFR sprinklers if FM is simultaneously calling for a 
0.42/2000 density/area design?

Mark-

So riddle me this, I’m working on a project that specifies ESFR heads and FM 
wants .42/2000. What are my options ?

So the answer is, no. FM has not banned ESFR systems.  

 

They have just stopped recognizing the ESFR term.  Many sprinklers you know as 
‘ESFR’ they simply refer to as a ‘storage sprinkler.’  Likewise as Travis and 
Craig noted, there are some sprinklers they recognize as ‘storage’ that are not 
identified as ESFR by the manufacturer.

I may be having a senior moment but I swear I remember reading something about 
FM not allowing ESFR systems….. Is that even remotely true?
