This process involves heating the room to over 130 degrees. My instructions were to remove the sprinklers and replace with nipple/caps until the next day when the sprinklers could be replaced. I know in many cases the heating equipment is truck mounted and the heating ducts are stretched into the unit to be treated. In this case, the heater/blowers were all portable units. In retrospect, with all of these appliances in this unprotected space in an occupied wing of this hotel, this was a catastrophe waiting to happen. 1) Could I have replaced the 155* heads with intermediate temp heads? 2) Could I reuse these heads for the next bedbug job? _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list http://lists.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
