Strips malls where the big store has a sprinkler system, but

Strips malls where the big store has a sprinkler system, but all the small stores have no sprinklers. Have you seen them? They are quite common in my area.

i bet the ones that dont have the system installed are add on

They probably just aren’t required since each store unit is a much smaller space.

True… Stick a fire Extinguisher in there and that you have it

Yeah, in those strip malls in my area, the supermarkets in them has a sprinkler system, but all the small stores in the strip mall have no sprinklers. The supermarket probably required one, whereas the small stores didn’t.

Some stores might have fire walls protecting in between them, with a fire sprinkler by the entrance that connects to the mall.
