Maybe I'm reading this incorrectly but the system demand or required pressure should be lees than the static.

If the static were less then:
1.) Age of system? Has area of building's location experienced an increase in demand due to growth? 2.) Utility system fed from elevated tank? Elevation of water within tank? Pumps active, has utility decreased their pressure due to age of their system?

I have run into a couple of situations where the required pressure as shown on the system placard is less than the static pressure on the riser. I found another one today during a survey. If others are finding this, how do they handle it?
