No protection guarantees the total loss of the data. I'd agree with Brian, it's just the age old misconception of those drippy, leaky sprinklers ruining their equipment. And the 20G P.A. system, yeah that makes sense. It's all a matter of value. But I wonder if those people ever heard of off-site system backup storage. I think I'd be looking at something if it was that valuable. Craig L.

We were asked to quote a pre-action system for a 2 head room in an investment firm's office one time and I responded much as many of you have on this issue. The reply was that if there servers got ruined by water and they had to be replaced they were looking at a cool million dollars in HARDWARE alone. So spending 10-20 G on a preaction system is not a big deal to them when they consider the risk, however small, that someone could break a sprinkler. With that said, if it was my million dollars, 20G would seem like a small price to pay.

IFC 903.3.1.1.1 I don't see allows omission. IFC usually supersedes NFPA 13 exception. Code vs. standard in legal lingo. AHJ interp. required to determine if electrical room in NFPA 13 exception is overruled by IFC 903.3.1.1. And also as I think you imply is a telecomm room an electrical room. I say no and sprinkler the room but like the rest of the forum have a biased opinion for sprinklering everything. Chris -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Harris Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2007 8:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Telecom & Data Rooms I'm being told by an Architect we are doing a school with that I need to remove any heads from the Telecom & Data rooms and that I'm not allowed to run any pipe above those ceilings either. He is basing it on the provisions for eliminating heads in and Electrical room with a 2 hour fire wall, am I missing something? I am not aware of Telecom & Data rooms falling into the same category as an Electrical room. I have approved plans from the AHJ with the heads shown in those rooms and omitted from the Electrical rooms.
