Yup. The entire exit enclosure is supposed to be fire rated some hours,
including the lid, which better not be an ordinary roof. This also means there
is can be no

My only comment - wherever you take a drain discharge, if a main drain test
needs to occur, MAKE SURE THE MAIN DRAIN VALVE CAN BE OPENED FULLY AND A
sump. If one’s not being provided, ask for it and

A lot of good responses. Another consideration might be if you would be
required to do a drain test from this connection. That would be under pressure
and a higher volume that a straight drain. It might need to be considered in
the roof drain design.

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,
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

Brian,
This would be a cross connection of the potable water system with wastewater.
At minimum you would need a 1" air gap.
