Ask him to show you the requirement for that...Chapter and verse. The AHJ can' just make rules up as he decides he needs to. I know of no reason to leave them in place unless they become totally in accessable. The only thing I can imagine that would create that condition would be a hard ceiling.Good luck.Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8. -------- Original message --------From: John Irwin via Sprinklerforum <sprinklerforum@lists.firesprinkler.org> Date: 6/18/20 2:21 PM (GMT-05:00) To: sprinklerforum@lists.firesprinkler.org Cc: John Irwin <jir...@quickresponsefl.com> Subject: Uprights in non combustible concealed space
We installed temporary upright Protection in a partially occupied building during a major renovation. We then came back and dropped pendent heads in the new ceiling. We left the uprights above the new ceiling. Fire inspector says we need to remove the uprights now. Is there a basis for removing these? I realize they are not required but are they permitted to remain? John Irwin
