NFPA requires hangers to be installed on armovers over 12" when operating
pressure is over 100 PSI.  What if normal street pressure is below 100 PSI
and pressure surges cause a build-up of 100 PSI or more on the system side
of the check valve?  The AHJ's argument is that the system will have over
100 PSI when the system first operates, albeit for a brief moment.  Is the
AHJ correct in his interpretation of this requirement?  Has anyone ever come
across this question?

 

Thanks in advance.
