Actually it used to be a requirement in IFC 2000, But was changed in 03. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, April 08, 2009 2:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: 100ft from FDC to hydrant?
that's what I was looking for and why I could not find it in 13. So the question is now whether the local AHJ requires this for sprinkler systems. Thanks to all. Craig L.

Got a comment about locating a fire hydrant no more than 75-100 ft from the riser FDC. I know I've seen this requirement somewhere but for some reason I can not locate it in NFPA or the IBC or IFC. Does anyone know where this is right off the top of their head? All my search engines have failed me. Craig L.
