GENERAL
1. A supply of spare sprinklers (never less than 6) shall be maintained on the
premises so that any sprinklers that have operated or been damaged in any
way can be promptly replaced. These sprinklers shall correspond to the types
and temperature ratings of the sprinklers on the property. Sections 6.2.9.1 &
6.2.9.2 NFPA 13.
2. The spare sprinklers shall be kept in a cabinet located where temperatures
will not exceed 100 degrees "F" at any time. A special sprinkler wrench shall
be provided and kept in the sprinkler cabinet to be used in the removal and
installation of sprinklers. Sections 6.2.9.3 & 6.2.9.6 NFPA 13.
3. The clearance between the deflector and the top of storage shall be 18 inches
or greater. Section 8.6.6.1 NFPA 13. The distance shall be increased to 36
inches for Large Drop sprinkler heads. Section 8.11.6 NFPA 13
4. Sprinklers shall be located a minimum of 4 inches from walls and spaced not
less than 6 feet on center. Sections 8.6.3.3 & 8.6.3.4.1 NFPA 13.
5. Clearances shall be provided around all piping extending through platforms,
foundations, walls and floors. The diameter of the hole shall be 2 inches
larger than the penetrating pipe for pipe sizes 1 inch through 3% inches. The
