Definitely follow-up with the kinds, quantities and methods of storage. If 
associated with a college chem. lab, then I suspect everything is to be stored 
in cabinets with limited quantities - in that case the OHII should be fine. Of 
course, my suspicions don't count so verify.

If OHII, probably not a big deal since you're only talking two heads. Extra 
Hazard may get you unusually large pipe for those two heads.

What kinds/quantities of chemicals?  Flammable gasses?   This is so
subjective ... it could be an EH II just as surely as an OH II.

Subject: Small Chemical Storage Room

I have a project with a small chemical prep/storage room that is 253 sf (19'
x 13'4).  NFPA 13 calls out chemical labs as OH2, but I can't find anything 
about the storage/prep.  This is a community college science lab.  What would 
be the appropriate design criteria for this room, or what would be the proper 
code to reference?

Thanks,
