Let me give some more details: - area is approx. 2500 m2 single space - the ocupancy classification is OH-I - spr type is SU - the alternative sprinklers are K=79 and K=81 (metric) - the Hyd Calc is done for K=79, - piping already installed, just want to use two different types of sprinklers in the same roof
Apart from this particular case, can there be any generally applicable rule?

Aydın ÖZKAYA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 18/06/2008 04:58 PM Please respond to [email protected] To <[email protected]> cc Subject Sprinkler Mix&Match Dear All, A contractor is in short of sprinklers, while installation. So he wants to use mix&match; that is, he wants to install two different manufaturer's sprinklers in the same ceiling; more clearly. 1/3rd of the ceiling will be from one manufaturer, 2/3rd is from other manufaturer. Altough the temperature ratings and response type is same, K factors are slightly different; so they are not identical. Is this case covered by the code? Is it allowed? What is the article number? Thanks in advance.
