What is NFPA 13 Sprinkler Coverage Guidelines about?
A sprinkler system can have an unlimited number of risers to cover a larger area, but the water demand calculation is based on controlling a fire within a smaller area, typically 2,000-3,000 square feet. While each riser can cover up to 52,000 square feet, the water flow requirement is the same whether there is one riser covering 52,000 square feet or multiple risers covering a larger total area, as the flow is based on density over a smaller design area.
