3.2.5.13. — Automatic Sprinkler Systems
(1) Except as permitted by Sentences (2) to (4), an automatic sprinkler system shall be designed, constructed, installed and tested in conformance with NFPA 13, “Installation of Sprinkler Systems”.
(2) Instead of the requirements of Sentence (1), NFPA 13R, “Installation of Sprinkler Systems in Residential Occupancies up to and Including Four Stories in Height”, is permitted to be used for the design, construction, installation and testing of an automatic sprinkler system installed in a building,
(a) of residential occupancy that is not more than 4 storeys in building height or
(b) of Group B, Division 3 occupancy that contains sleeping accommodation for not more than 10 persons and not more than 6 occupants require assistance in evacuation in case of an emergency.
(3) Instead of the requirements of Sentence (1), NFPA 13D, “Installation of Sprinkler Systems in One- and Two-Family Dwellings and Mobile Homes”, is permitted to be used for the design, construction, installation and testing of an automatic sprinkler system installed in a building of residential occupancy that contains not more than 2 dwelling units.
(4) If a building contains fewer than 9 sprinklers, the water supply for these sprinklers is permitted to be supplied from the domestic water system for the building provided the required flow for the sprinklers can be met by the domestic system.
(5) If a water supply serves both an automatic sprinkler system and a system serving other equipment, control valves shall be provided so that either system can be shut off independently.
(6) Notwithstanding the requirements of the standards referenced in Sentences (1) and (2) for the installation of automatic sprinkler systems, sprinklers shall not be omitted in any room or closet in the storey immediately below a roof assembly if the fire-resistance rating of the roof assembly is waived as permitted by Article 3.2.2.17.
(7) Fast response sprinklers shall be installed in care or detention occupancies and in sprinklered residential occupancies.
(8) Sprinklers in elevator machine rooms shall have a temperature rating not less than that required for an intermediate temperature classification and shall be protected against physical damage.
Editor's note
This map follows the as-filed text of O. Reg. 350/06 for Article 3.2.5.13. of Division B, whose clause list in Sentence (2) reads 'not more than 4 storeys in building height or (b) of Group B, Division 3 occupancy' without a comma before 'or (b)'. As of its September 24, 2009 re-render the e-Laws consolidation editorially inserts a comma before 'or (b)', with no amending regulation making the change — O. Reg. 365/09 (effective September 24, 2009) does not amend this Article. This map preserves the as-filed punctuation.
