I have a question about the 3 year air test required for dry, deluge and preaction systems by NFPA 25 (2011 or 2014) 13.4.3.2.6 (preaction, deluge) or 13.4.4.2.9 (dry systems). I know I probably have the only customer that does not address the leaks after a failed test, so how would you handle the test? We record it as a failed test. Do you repeat the test annually until you get a satisfactory test; or just repeat the test in three years? After reading the above paragraphs, I could not find any guidance, in the standard or the handbook.
