Commercial Fire based their design on .45/2000. I told him the deisgn was obviously adequate however there shall be NO storage above 20'. John said he spoke with the manger of Costo and told them not to store over 20'. The ceiling in the freezer is 21'-6" Please, see attached letter.

The sprinkler system as installed matched the plans. The problem is that the plans state the maximum storage height is not to exceed 17'0" and it does. The storage appears to be less than 18" from the sprinkler pendants. The product storage needs to be permanantly reduced or the storage height needs to be addressed on the city approved plans.
