Can You Live Without Them? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Travis Mack, SET Sent: Wednesday, October 06, 2010 11:12 AM To: [email protected] Subject: fire caulk sprinkler penetrations We have a fire marshal that is requesting that the sprinkler head penetrations through a rated ceiling be fire caulked. I thought I read somewhere that you are not req'd to fire caulk the fire sprinkler penetrations. If this is correct, can some one point me to the code/standard reference for this? Thanks in advance! -- Please feel free to call if you have any questions or comments.
