No doubt but I'm sure it's not news you are the Kleenex and Xerox of the industry. Probably even more so than Vic couplings.
What will be interesting in the future is when the original installation uses Flexheads and a retrofit company sees 'flexheads' and substitutes another brand with significantly higher friction loss. Dont see too many AHJ picking up on that one. Chris Cahill, P.E. Fire Protection Engineer Sentry Fire Protection, Inc. 763-658-4483 763-658-4921 fax Email: [email protected] Mail: P.O.

Do you use a flex head with a 90° - or straight ? listening....
