It can be a killer. I'm looking at a job where 135 ESFR sprinklers
may have to be relocated around obstructions. All new

I'm not looking it up, but I doubt there's much reading between the lines on
this one. Despite that, a friend who's on #13 told me (and maybe on the
Forum, don't recall, hence he remains unnamed here) he knows better but
cannot compete in his market if he didn't re-use them as you want to- and
maybe (until a lawsuit) it's a local tradition sort of thing.
In this case, it looks like the AHJ is enforcing the code, and I don't know
where to find a leg to stand on that would hold up to the inevitable
question "what didn't you understand about only new heads shall be used?".

Subject: Remodel Jobs
Hello sprinklerforum,
Minor debate with an AHJ over reusing heads in a space that is
remodeling. 6.2.1 Will only allow new heads to be installed. I know
about removing the head reducer from the pipe and putting back on a
new pipe to move a head, But these are 401 style and the reducer is
covered by the cup. IS there anything in NFPA13 to allow reuse of
heads when a space is remodeled ?
