There is a city we work in where every building must have a PIV. I don't know 
if that is in the code, but the fire department won't approve a system without 
one.

We have a riser room at the rear of a building. An exterior door opens to 
interior of riser room which contains a backflow preventer with two indicating 
control valves, a rise check valve, and a water flow switch. Underground line 
to building has a nonindicating gate valve in roadway box some distance from 
door to riser room. AJH says a post indicator valve must be installed outside 
riser room. We believe the current arrangement of piping and valves meets the 
standard without the PIV
Please comment.
