If the closure of those valves will impair the operation of the system (which I believe they will) they need to be monitored.

I think I asked this already... and apologize for regurgitating it! I have a bldg. that is 'U-shaped' in nature. The system is of CPVC in nature - fairly small. Prior to going into the 'legs' of the 'U' - the contractor wants to have (2) ball valves installed to isolate each wing for maintenance purposes. Do these ball valves need to be of a 'monitored' (wired to panel) type or can they be just run-of-the-mill ball valves? Imho - I believe they should be 'monitored' valves. Thanks! R.F.P.
