Tyco

I had a question about the DPV1 dry valve. I called, left a message and got a return phone call from the local salesman. I got my questions answered, w/o a salespitch.

I have called them once already about this project and the attic heads

Not sure if I got the person I should have , answered most if the questions

I think this problem needs some pictures sent to them, may call back and see if they will accept some pictures and if they would be able to make a call with pictures only

May call a local rep to see if they do field calls and offer advice

Looks like your typ truss bracing would be OK, but if it were a roof system with purlins closer than 3' or greater than 6"...heads on both sides.....

Talked again to a tyco person with great knowledge of the attic heads.

He pointed out another obstruction rule that looks like it would apply

So back to the project to have another look

 

[SCBO1]

In the drawing, if the 6" or larger obstruction is closer than 36" Verticle to the sprinkler head, then another head would be required below the obstruction?
