Default Automatic fire sprinklers

yea they can do this all for $3500.00 average WTF who came up with
that assigned figure it will be at least twice that in this county and
that's if pumps etc not involved.


About 3 years ago I went through that. Prior to the start of build, builder
swore that $5K would cover the cost of the sprinklers. Mid build, revised
esitmate was $8K. Final cost was $12K.

Why? Only 2 licensed fire supression installers in county, knew they had a good
thing going, wouldn't agree to a binding contract in advance.
