Greetings to All From New Mexico: I have a Client (hotel) with a wet-pipe fire sprinkler system, two floors, all POZ-LOK pipe and 'fittings'. Transitioning from Hampton Inn to Marriott format. Can anyone offer input/ comments about keeping the POZ-LOK in place while, at same time, is anyone aware of where said pipe and fittings might be purchased or is it all "gone"?? Some revisions to the system will be required for new walls/ceilings, etc., thus, Owner needs to be able to procure parts. Any and all responses will be most welcome. Obviously, we are trying to avoid removing the entire system and 'starting over'. Gracias from Nuevo Mejico!! Jerry [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Jerry D.

From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tim Stone Sent: Friday, May 13, 2016 10:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Polyethylene Tanks Are there any requirements in NFPA 22 not allowing the use of Polyethylene water storage tanks for residential or commercial sprinkler systems? These tanks are installed above ground usually in Basements. The local State agency is getting ready to adopt the 2013 edition of NFPA 22 and I am being told NFPA 22 only permits Fiberglass. I don’t see where Polyethylene is excluded. Thoughts please. Regards, G. Tim Stone G.
