CLEARANCE TO A SPRINKLER

In a situation where a sprinkler head is installed within proximity to a Heat Release, the diagram below MUST be followed. The
distance between the sprinkler head & Heat Release opening cannot be less than 60" in length at every point from the origin of
the Heat Release. You must also verify the sprinkler head sensor is set to the proper heat setting so it does not activate when
the room heats up from the fireplace being operated normally.
DO NOT INSTALL A SPRINKLER IN THE FIREPLACE
CAVITY.
Please follow local building code to determine what temperature setting is relevant for your installation.
WARNING
VAULTED CEILINGS CAN CREATE A CHANEL THAT FUNNELS HOT AIR DIRECTLY TOWARDS A SPRINKLER HEAD PLACED AT THE
PROPER DISTANCE FROM HEAT RELEASE, AS STATED ABOVE. IF SPRINKLER HEAD SENSOR IS NOT RATED FOR HIGH HEAT IT
COULD POTENTIALLY SET OFF THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM INADVERTENLY. PLEASE WORK WITH BUILDER & INSPECTOR TO VERIFY
YOUR SPRINKLER SYSTYEM IS PROPERLY SET TO ACCOMMODATE HIGHER TEMPERATURES & IS NOT SET UP IN A HEAT CHANEL
