Well they're in our state code so I expect they're everywhere here. I know I've done a ton of them, flats and townhouse style. I don't use a common service unless it's a single family, just my preference. All CPVC, 2 head design, FDC and BFP. Our FDC's must be within 150' of a hydrant. Separates seem more expensive anyway, not to mention annunciation. Tom
Are you talking about townhomes or flats? If townhomes, we have allownaces in our codes allowing 13D's in townhomes, with no limit on number of units. And yes there is an FDC every 30 ft. or so along the building.

However, I did not get a response regarding other cities allowing the 3 unit to install 13D in each unit, anyone out there know of any? Also, how would others protect this building if not by the above mentioned? 13R with FDC? Looking forward to your responses.
