Hi all, Can anybody provide me with details regarding the minimum clearance requirements for sprinklers heads? We have racking etc which is positioned closely to our sprinklers heads! Would this fall under BS EN 12845? Thanks in advance Paul

Hi Paul Suggest you use this link to FM Insurance where you can register for free and then have access to all their data sheeets including those on sprinkler systems which are particulalry good. http://www.fmglobal.com/page.aspx?id=04010200 Take care JohnC

Your property insurer should be able to give their view. The FM link is a good one if you are likely to be under their insurance regime. Others would follow LPC Rules: http://www.thefpa.co.uk/...S+5306-2+Book+format.htm A much less costly option is to make a simple phone call to the insurers.
