25% ordinary hazard
on site pire protection water storage tank
entire builidng is sprinklerd

and out side hose allownce
i consider my building as light hazard since the majority of builing is light hazard
and using 100 gpm for insdie/out side house allownce
my question is do we really need fire hose cabinet in the builing
 

RE: Fire hose Cabinet requiremnet

Has the ahj required them??
has anyone asked??


what building code and edition is the building designed to, that will give most of the answers.

RE: Fire hose Cabinet requiremnet

(OP)
the builidng code is Manitoba building code
and NFPA
 

RE: Fire hose Cabinet requiremnet

According NFPA 101 it may or may not require class III 2.5NH connections (per NFPA 14), depending on the type of occupancy.
For class II 1.5NH hose connections (preconnected hose cabinets for occupant use) it is a local code matter.
