Viking is a proud world leader in the design and manufacturing of life-saving fire sprinklers. The VK479 Residential Horizontal Sidewall Sprinkler is just one of thousands of industry-leading sprinklers available to customers! 

The VK479 is cULus Listed with a flow rate of 11 GPM (42 L/min) and a pressure requirement of 13.4 PSI (0.92 bar) in a 12 x 12 ft. (3,7 x 3,7 m) room size.
