Fire Sprinkler System Permit in Lindon, Utah
Required for installation of an automatic fire sprinkler (fire protection) system for new construction or a tenant improvement in Lindon. Lindon City does not employ its own fire-prevention plan reviewers or publish its own sprinkler-system fee table: since 2008, Lindon has contracted Fire/EMS response to Orem City, and Lindon has separately 'partnered with Orem City Fire Prevention and Inspection to perform inspections on new construction and business license inspections' (Lindon's official Fire/EMS page). Orem's Fire Prevention Division serves Orem, Lindon, and Vineyard for plan review, permits, and inspections. Lindon's own 2025-2026 Fee Schedule reflects this directly: its 'Plan Review Fee' section lists a distinct 'Fire Sprinkler and/or Fire Alarm Plan Review' line item priced 'As per Orem City Fee Schedule' — a genuinely governing, city-published cross-reference rather than an invented figure. Orem's own currently-adopted FY 2025-2026 Adopted Budget Fee Schedule (Exhibit B) prices Sprinkler System Inspections (office plan check, hydro test, flush, and final inspection) by project square footage; this is the figure Lindon's own schedule points to.

- Automatic fire sprinkler (fire protection) system installation for new construction, or modification/extension of an existing system for a tenant improvement, in a building located in Lindon
- Sprinkler system plans submitted directly to the Orem City Fire Prevention Division (fireprevention@orem.gov) for plan review — separate from, but coordinated with, the Lindon Building Department's own building-permit plan review
- Third-party code compliance review is required for any new-construction or tenant-improvement sprinkler project involving 20 or more heads, per Orem Fire Prevention's published Contractor's Corner guidance
- Complete set of fire sprinkler plans included with the Lindon Commercial Plan Submittal Checklist or Tenant Improvement Checklist submittal where a sprinkler system is part of the project scope, per this file's commercial-building-permit and commercial-tenant-improvement-permit entries
- For a tenant improvement to a building with an existing fire suppression system, any modification to the existing floor plan requires updated coverage plans submitted to Orem Fire Prevention before work begins

Tips
- Lindon has no fire-sprinkler plan-review staff or fee schedule of its own — plans go directly to the Orem City Fire Prevention Division (fireprevention@orem.gov), which serves Orem, Lindon, and Vineyard, per Orem's official Fire Prevention & Inspections page.
- Projects with 20 or more sprinkler heads require third-party code compliance review in addition to Orem Fire Prevention's own plan review, per Orem's Contractor's Corner guidance.
- Schedule sprinkler inspections through Orem's online inspections system (orem.gov/inspections-and-permits/); the sprinkler final is performed jointly with the fire alarm final, so both contractors should be present.
- Lindon's own Building Permit Fee (1997 UBC Table 1-A valuation) explicitly excludes fire sprinkler and fire alarm systems from the valuation — those systems are priced separately through this Fire Sprinkler and/or Fire Alarm Plan Review line item instead.
