The sign shall include the following information: • Location of the design area or areas • Discharge densities over the design area or areas • Required flow and residual pressure demand at the base of the riser • Occupancy classification or commodity classification and maximum permitted storage height and configuration • Hose stream allowance included in addition to the sprinkler demand • The name of the installing contractor 11. Door Signs - Doors leading into rooms that contain controls for fire sprinklers shall ❑ ❑ ❑ be identified with an approved sign. Approved signs shall identify fire protection equipment and be durable martials, red and white in color, permanently installed, and readily visible. 12. Valve Signs - All control, drain, and test connection valves shall be provided with a ❑ ❑ ❑ weatherproof metal or rigid plastic identification signs, secured with corrosion - resistant wire, chain, or other approved means. The sign shall identify the portion of the building served and systems with more than one control valve that must be closed to work on a system or space shall have a sign referring to existence and location of other valves. 13. Caution Sign -A caution signs shall be provided with the following wording: ❑ ❑ ❑ This valve controls fire protection equipment. Do not close until after fire has been extinguished.
