I am designing an NFPA 13 mid-rise apartment building that includes three townhome-style two-floor apartments. The EOR put a note on the FP plans to locate a hose valve on each floor of those units "AS REQUIRED." I didn't put them on my plans because I have never seen them required in similar units in other buildings. The EOR's review comments came back saying "Fire Protection permit review indicated hose valves required in 2-story units." I have requested the fire protection permit review comments and was told by the GC it is unlikely we'll receive them, and that I should just include those valves. My plans were approved by the AHJ without those valves. It is the EOR now refusing to accept my plans without the valves.
Are those valves required?
