Hello sprinklerforum,

  I ran into a system installed way before my time and do not understand
  something. The Fire pump is all plumbed in 6", The Pump Test header has
  three 2 1/2" outlets. There is about 30 feet of pipe between the test
  header valve and the test header. The test header is located about 12
  feet below the pump outlet.

  My question is:
  Why would they come off the 6" test header line valve step the pipe UP to
  8" pipe for that 30 feet then reduce it back down to 6" to connect to the
  test header? What am I missing?
