More than 20 sprinklers refers to medium- to large-scale fire sprinkler system installations or modifications involving more than twenty sprinkler heads. These projects typically cover entire rooms, floors, or buildings and require comprehensive design, engineering, permitting, and coordination with other trades
When handling more-than-20-sprinkler projects, S&S Fire Protection will:
- Develop detailed system designs, hydraulic calculations, and shop drawings per NFPA standards and client requirements.
- Coordinate with architects, engineers, general contractors, and authorities having jurisdiction (AHJ) throughout the design and construction process.
- Select appropriate sprinkler types, piping materials, and control valves based on hazard classification and building codes.
- Handle procurement, installation, testing, flushing, and commissioning of the full system.
- Manage scheduling, manpower, and logistics for efficient project delivery.
- Ensure all work complies with applicable codes such as NFPA 13, local amendments, and insurance requirements.
