Don- The truck is hooked up to a private hydrant downstream of the BFP and located next to the yard FDC. The FDC is on a dedicated line back to the building, tying in downstream of the pump discharge.   Thank you,   Brian Harris, CET BVS Systems Inc.   From: Don Casey <don.ca...@mississauga.ca> Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2024 7:45 PM To: Discussion list on issues relating to automatic fire sprinklers <sprinklerforum@lists.firesprinkler.org> Subject: [Sprinklerforum] Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Back Feeding Through the FDC?   Where are they drawing the water from?     On Apr 18, 2024, at 6:30 PM, AKS-Gmail-IMAP <aksei...@gmail.com> wrote:  [CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization.

How about you taking some time to describe exactly what you are referring to so that we do not have to guess every aspect. Assume you have told us next to nothing so far.   Thank you.   Allan Seidel St. Louis, MO   On Apr 18, 2024, at 3:46 PM, bhar...@bvssystemsinc.com wrote:   AHJ had us remove a 5” Storz and replace it with a custom header that has (4) 2-1/2” hose valves for the FDC. Standpipe test has failed 3 times and now they’re thinking water is circulating through these valves back to the fire truck. Anybody ever run into something like that? _________________________________________________________ SprinklerForum mailing list: https://lists.firesprinkler.org/list/sprinklerforum.lists.firesprinkler.org To unsubscribe send an email to sprinklerforum-le...@lists.firesprinkler.org   _________________________________________________________ SprinklerForum mailing list: https://lists.firesprinkler.org/list/sprinklerforum.lists.firesprinkler.org To unsubscribe send an email to sprinklerforum-le...@lists.firesprinkler.org _________________________________________________________ SprinklerForum mailing list: https://lists.firesprinkler.org/list/sprinklerforum.lists.firesprinkler.org To unsubscribe send an email to sprinklerforum-le...@lists.firesprinkler.org
