Subject: [Sprinklerforum] Re: Roof Drain / Sprinkler Drain

In most cases/places, the sprinkler water is considered gray water, and it 
would be OK to discharge a sprinkler drain to a storm sewer (this is most 
likely where it would end up if you have ever piped a sprinkler drain out an 
exterior wall). This is not OK everywhere, so for your specific project, it 
would be best to ask the AHJ and the plumber (and possibly the plumbing 
inspector) on the project if it is OK.

I think that would depend on the municipality, most do not want the sprinkler 
water going directly into the storm drains, drained to exterior or into a waste 
drain

We have a project with standpipes and a basement. All floors above the basement 
drain through the Standpipe drain and empty at grade. We usually then drain the 
remaining (basement) section of standpipe through the bottom hose valve. The GC 
is asking if we can instead drain that last section by tying into the roof 
drain in the same stairwell that runs outside below grade. Is this a no-no?
