[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 2371149, member: 23"] It would depend on the flow rate of the particular head activated. The ones I've seen are fed by 1" lines leading to the heads. When heat activates a sprinkler head, only the one that was activated by heat dispenses water. It's not like the movies where a head is activated and the whole building is flooded in minutes. Typically (depending on room size) one room is covered by one head. Usually approx 100 square feet per head. [/QUOTE]
