The Globe Specific Application Attic Protection Scheme has undergone full scale fire testing with Underwriters Laboratories and is Listed to be utilized per NFPA 13 in conformance with the New Technology and Equivalency Sections as well as the Special Sprinkler Section.
The Globe Specific Application Attic Protection Scheme has been engineered to consider all construction conditions typically found in the attic built environment. The scheme utilizes a unique strategy with two distinct types of special sprinklers. The positioning and use of these sprinklers in conjunction with each other, and their complimentary effects on fire control has been carefully considered for these specific Attic structure hazards. Consequently, the required number of sprinklers to calculate and system demand is drastically reduced from that seen with standard protection schemes or even the more recent Special Application schemes.
