Residential Fire Sprinkler Details, Specs, etc...
(OP)
Can anyone furnish me with the basics (HTMLs okay) as to how these systems work and how much they cost (only up to the fire riser). I've a medium-sized subdivision in NorCAL to plan and there is a requirement to sprinkle all the pretty houses. Thanks to all in advance.

The typical demand for a residential sprinkler system ranges from 30 - 45 gpm at about 60 psi.
I always recommend that the contractor installing the supply brings in a minimum 1-1/4" line from the public main to the fire riser. You can install a 1" meter on the line, but a 1" line will typically not cut it.
Feel free to ask more if there is something else you need clarified.
