Thanks for confirming Jerry. The light is small and It just looks weird to have a head so far away from the center of the room where the light is located. Of course when I have to offset the sprinkler so much it affects my calculations since it is a 13 application. Glad the salesman bid it as if there were no lights present :) Thanks, Dewayne

You should only need a single head at 36" away.

Many of the rooms have a surface mounted domed light which is about 12in in diameter and 5in deep at the center. It seems to me that I must maintain at least 36in away from the edge of the light per figure 8.10.6.2.1.3 or install a sprinkler on both sides correct?
