Yes. As explained by Formal Interpretation 78-6, these areas require sprinklers because they are part of the premises. NFPA 13 requires that sprinklers be installed throughout the premises in accordance with Section 4-1.1. There are no exceptions provided which allow for sprinkler omission in these areas.
