Have you experienced problems with galvanized/painted piping? I saw on the Alvinius website that the installed cost is "30% less than a stainless steel system"...that still sounds pretty expensive. It also seems like it might be difficult to stock materials if the product must be factory fabricated in Sweden. How long would a system be out of service if it was accidentally damaged?
What is the availability of metric/imperial adapters? Would the whole system be metric?

I have an AHJ in this area looking at using it for systems in "Exposed Areas" such as Parking garages and open balconies facing the ocean. Looks like it is only made in metric sizes and would have to be factory fabbed. -- Best regards, Charles Thurston Coastal Fire Protection mailto:[email protected] _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
