Ron, That's what I was thinking. I just don't see any way around it.
Their data sheet does require a minimum of 6' from standard sprinklers without a baffle. That's one of the things that makes it more difficult to lay out.

On the plus side though I don't think you have to worry about cold soldering from the ceiling sprinklers either.

For example, if this was a standard water curtain with heads on 6' centers your heads would cover 7.5' away from the center line of the heads (away from the water curtain) even in an ordinary hazard occupancy. But window heads appear to me a directional spray specialty head and it seems to me that the standard coverage heads would need to spray to the center line of the window head. Any thoughts?
