Prahl, CET Fire Protection Group Mechanical Department CH2MHILL Lockwood Greene 1500 International Drive PO Box 491, Spartanburg, SC 29304-0491 Direct - 864.599.4102 Fax - 864.599.8439 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lg.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of mail Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 1:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Fwd: Hydrostatic testing recalled sprinkler heads Hi Group, A little more information about the building. It is on an Air Force site and the Fire Chief, who is the AHJ, is requiring the hydrostatic test after the Omega heads were replaced. The fire sprinkler head replacement did not emcompass the entire building because there are mixed heads within the building. No single area can be isolated because the replaced heads were at random places throughout the building. Many of the existing heads remain. The building is full of very sensitive electronic equipment and a ruptured fitting or pipe would cause damage to this equipment. No mention was made of a hydro test when we were awarded the job, but at the completion of the job the AHJ required it. We want to get paid, and the Air Force is reluctant to indemnify us for any damage that might occur. I think we are between a rock and a hard place. Any help from forum members will be appreciated.
