Yeah talk to TYCO Tech services. If you were at AFSA DC you could have heard James Golinveaux speak to this very topic. Basically the only thing that determines how these sprinklers are to be used is their listing, because they are "Outside of the scope of NFPA 13".

The ME wants the Area and Slope increases per 11.2.3.2.4 and 11.2.3.2.5. I pointed out the listing of the Attic heads but all he says is " If it's OK with the Local AHJ, he takes " no exception to that design approach" but he will not stamp the drawings saying this, even tho he DID stamp the first set " rejected/ resubmit"! LOcal AHJ requires plans to be stamped by the EOR or the Architect prior to submission, and the Architect won't stamp them " because". Trying to build a case that what we did is " per NFPA 13 and industry standard. Any thoughts?
