Good afternoon Darren,
During my final inspection today I noticed something that I have not seen before. Essentially, when you
conducted your final trim you installed a couple of "spacers"to cover for what appeared to be heads that were
mounted too low.
I mentioned this to you along with my intention to discuses this with the Fire Marshall. He has not seen
anything like this as well. This, technically, is altering the manner by which that sprinkler head is designed to
operate.
Here is what we are going to need:
We need verification from the sprinkler manufacture indicating that the spacer ring is an acceptable and
approved to be used in conjunction with those heads.
If that is a commercially made "spacer" specifically designed for that purpose then please send us the specs
for it so that we can include in the historical record. If this is a "on the f7y"fix that is not engineered by a fire
sprinkler professional then we will have to have further discussion about it. It looks like a good idea but we
need some sort of verification that this is a acceptable application.
Thank you for your time.
JJ Dowling
Acting Deputy Fire Marshal
