Notes

Date	Text
2016-11-23 17:24:36	THIS PLAN WAS REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY PETER LEDUC,
	FIRE MARSHAL, WITH THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS:

	PLEASE CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING AS PROVISO:


	THESE PROVISO COMMENTS WILL BE VERIFIED AND CONFIRMED
	AT THE TIME OF FIRE INSPECTION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE
	PROVISO COMMENTS WILL RESULT IN A FAILED FIRE
	INSPECTION.


	1) PROVIDE AN ISOLATION VALVE TO DUST COLLECTOR SYSTEM
	AND TEST AT 200PSI.

	THE PROPOSED PROJECT IS ADDING ALL NEW PIPING AND
	HEADS, IT DOES NOT INVOLVE RELOCATED HEADS AND, IT CAN
	BE ISOLATED.

	24.2.1.4 MODIFICATIONS AFFECTING 20 OR FEWER SPRINKLERS
	SHALL NOT REQUIRE TESTING IN EXCESS OF SYSTEM WORKING
	PRESSURE.
	24.2.1.6 MODIFICATIONS THAT CANNOT BE ISOLATED, SUCH AS
	RELOCATED DROPS, SHALL NOT REQUIRE TESTING IN EXCESS OF
	SYSTEM WORKING PRESSURE.

	ADDITIONALLY, THIS IS A HIGHER THAN NORMAL HAZARD
	PROTECTION SYSTEM WHERE SYSTEM INTEGRITY IS ESSENTIAL.


	2) ADDITIONALLY, AN ISOLATION VALVE WILL ALSO FUNCTION
	IN THE CASE OF COLLECTOR SPRINKLER ACTIVATION AND SHUT
	DOWN WHILE MAINTAINING PORTECTION THROUGHOUT THE
	BUILDING.
