Do we need to put fire extinghuishers in crawl space according to NFPA? it is only about 1 meter high inside. I think it is impossible for people running to get fire extinguisher in emergency.

Is the building required to be protected by an automatic sprinkler system?
What is the occupancy of the building?

You cannot get around the fire protection requirement unless the Canadian Building Code has some exception. I don't have a CBC.
If you are having problems applying the construction codes, seek professional design assistance from a licensed fire protection engineer.

I can't recall a requirement to put portable fire extinguishers in an attic that is sprinkled, so my gut feeling is why would they be required in a 3 ft crawlspace that is sprinkled?
Take the "V" out of HVAC and you are left with a HAC(k) job.
