 Fire sprinkler head above furnace

Sorry. I've never seen that. It doesn't really make a lot of sense. If I had a choice of where to put a single sprinkler head in a building, it wouldn't be above the furnace.

Just for fun, where would you put one sprinkler head?
If my house ever burns, all I want is to get my family out. After that I'll be beating the firemen back with a stick. The house can burn to the ground. They won't be doing me any favors by saving it.
Now I need to have a chat with my neighbor, he's the fire chief.

Today by coincidence I found one above a furnace, connected to a second inside a storage closet, but none other in the building. This was the office of a property built in 1938 and remodeled in 2005. I would assume when they installed the system, they would include the other areas in the building. I've seen many high rises with a sole head located above the dumpster under the trash chute, which makes more sense.
