We run into this regularly. Given the typical lack of information
available...the only way to reproduce a Hydraulic Plate is to survey the
existing system, produce a set of plans and perform a new set of demand or
supply calculations. If the system is an old "Pipe Schedule" system, chances
are good that it is 50 years old and all the heads will need to be replaced.I
think this is something that the 13 and 25 technical committee need to address
and give the industry direction.It is a hard sell to explain to a building
owner why he/she needs to spend thousands of dollars to re create this
