I would say yes. Owner just misses out on a few years until they have to replace or test them.

NFPA 13 says “only new sprinklers shall be installed”. If I have sprinklers that are several years old but have been stored properly and never been installed, are they still defined as ‘new’ per NFPA 13? Is there any other code that states a maximum age for a ‘new’ fire sprinkler?
