This thread has already gone on way too long but I can't let this slide. Scott: If your installing window sprinklers in an unsprinklered building, your already outside the scope of the listing and the building code, so your using your "Engineer" Status to say that this will work! And with that your also accepting design responsibility, and liability. (TYCO must just love guy's like you that take away all of their product liability, by using it in way's it was never intended, and yet they still get the sales.) This has been said before but I guess some didn't hear it, The window sprinklers are to be used in full sprinklered buildings. To do otherwise is at your own peril.
