Could someone give me a ballpark figure for the installation of a sprinkler system? Does it usually go by square footage? Any other pertinent details, like how from an external water line?
I know it's pretty hit or miss on the need for a fire suppression system, depending on location. In the "big city," I'm 90% certain I'll be required to have one, but just outside in another borough, I probably won't. These are based on examples of the two existing distilleries in the area. I've narrowed my search down to a property in each place. I never got a hard number, but I was basically told that if a property doesn't have sprinklers installed and they're needed, don't bother. Keep looking. I'd like to know how viable this advice is. I still think it might be worthwhile given the other advantages of this property.
Thanks.
