Likewise when licensed fire protection contractors get caught attesting that the vane type flow switch operates properly yet no ITC exists. Lots of red faces this morning, but not to worry the fire alarm contractor says he tests em all with a screwdriver.

At the very least I will need a lot more information on the existing building before proposing something other than 6000 gpm to the AHJ. Thanks to everyone for your input.
