An automatic sprinkler system installed in accordance with Section 903.3.1.2 shall be permitted in Group I-1 Condition 1 facilities.
An automatic sprinkler system is not required where Group I-4 day care facilities are at the level of exit discharge and where every room where care is provided has not fewer than one exterior exit door.
In buildings where Group I-4 day care is provided on levels other than the level of exit discharge, an automatic sprinkler system in accordance with Section 903.3.1.1 shall be installed on the entire floor where care is provided, all floors between the level of care and the level of exit discharge, and all floors below the level of exit discharge other than areas classified as an open parking garage.

Considerate and incite. I called two different organizations for a fire sprinkler service, and then Fire Sprinkler Texas's replied and visited for investigation. Just Fire Sprinkler Texas showed up when they said they would. They did all works whatever we need for our home.

Last month I faced an accident of fire, and then I decided to meet a fire sprinkler expert for a safe home. So I had googled and found them. The finally fire sprinkler team set some sprinkler in my house and now my family feel secured.

As a general contractor, one would always hope and expect professionalism, quality and great communication from Subcontractors. That was what we got with James and his crew. Well done, thank you.
