I have an apartment block in Wales of 6 apartments in a converted detached Georgian building. It has a cellar, ground floor, middle floor and top floor. The sprinkler pipes have burst in the extreme weather conditions of late. My question is, could I just drain the system and not use it? The planning for the conversion of the building ( including sprinkler system) was submitted and approved in 2015 and was completed in 2016. The height of the actual floor on the top floor is much less than 11 metres, but the height of the building overall ( to top of roof) is 11 metres. Would not using the sprinkler system be possible? Many thanks for any answers or avenues of enquiry I can go down!
