Yep, valves are along the wall and hydrants are usually 50 ft. from the building although not at every door. Hydrants are about 300 ft. apart and the doors are 100 ft. apart.

I assume the connections are simply along the wall, not in a protected location. Hmm... Have yet to speak to any firefighter who would go inside a building on fire without a charged hose and then hook up to a hose connection. Good luck with that one Rich Richardson Seattle Fire Department They are requiring a 2.5" FHV inside at the man doors 100 ft. apart. The building is sprinklered 35 ft. high 300k sqft S1 (warehouse). _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum
