New Construction vs. Retrofit

• New construction. System design begins during the architectural phase. Sprinkler layouts are coordinated with structural, mechanical, and electrical trades. Pipe routing, head placement, and riser locations are planned before walls go up, keeping installation costs lower.
• Retrofit installation. Adding sprinklers to an existing building requires working around finished ceilings, walls, and occupied spaces. Contractors survey the building to find viable pipe routes, minimize cosmetic disruption, and maintain business operations during installation.

NFPA 13 Design Standards

All commercial fire sprinkler systems in Texas must comply with NFPA 13, which governs system design including hydraulic calculations, pipe sizing, sprinkler head spacing and placement, water supply requirements, and hazard classification. The design process accounts for your building's specific occupancy type. Office, retail, warehouse, restaurant, and manufacturing spaces each have different coverage requirements. For a direct comparison of installation and maintenance obligations, review our NFPA 13 vs NFPA 25 guide.
