We have only been required to submit the time delivery on the foam side of the system. All the FPE we have dealt with accepted that, both HiEX and Trench Nozzle.

I have used FDT for a dry tree in the past. I hated the input as I don't use SprinkCAD, it was very tedious inputs. Also, for these foam systems many times the overhead is a grid and the program can't handle grids..... just thinking out loud and wondering...
