I agree with Pete that the likely use of the term Shotgun is reference to a riser that doesn't have a control valve and may also not have a check valve. Out here in fair weather country we put our backflows out at the property line with FDC's attached to the discharge side, comprising a complete control-check-FDC manifold. It is very common to see a "riser" comprised of no more than a gauge, flow switch and test/drain valve.

A standpipe system will be a system that has hose valves for occupant or fire department use. These days we usually only see standpipes for fire department use. A standpipe system can also have connections to sprinkler systems. (Typical for 4 story or taller buildings in Florida). I have heard of a "Shotgun" riser. This is almost always a riser for a sprinkler system that has a control valve and a check valve. The check valve has a drain attached to it as well as the gauge assemblies. I have pasted a link (not sure if it will come through on this forum) to a "shotgun" riser check valve. https://imail2.waynefire.com/owa/?ae=PreFormAction&a=ReplyAll&t=IPM.Note &id=RgAAAADUIy2uEn7QEb6WAKDJDFRrBwBp%2fZ7LzzilS4i%2fDgCOx7xRAAAlYgAoAAAK Lb28HRUFToXdF0nAlaEnAAAAFMC8AAAJ&pspid=_1400861904231_553169776 Pete ________________________________________ From: Sprinklerforum [[email protected]] on behalf of Smith, David L.(FAC) [[email protected]] Sent: Friday, May 23, 2014 1:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Sprinkler Systems Can someone explain to me the definition of a Standpipe system and a shotgun system?
