Sprinkler Distance from Wall


What is the allowable distance a sprinkler head can be installed to a wall?


The NFPA 13 states that sprinklers must be at least 4 inches from a wall.

NFPA 13, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems, 1999 Edition

5-6.3.3 Minimum Distance from Walls.
Sprinklers shall be located a minimum of 4 in. (102 mm) from a wall.
