Maintenance
Model G6-80 Concealed Sprinklers should be inspected
and maintained in accordance with NFPA 25. Do not clean
sprinklers with soap and water, ammonia or any other clean-
ing fluids. Remove dust by using a soft brush or gentle vac-
uuming. Remove any sprinkler cover plate assembly, which
has been painted (other than factory applied) or damaged
in any way. A stock of spare sprinklers should be maintained
to allow quick replacement of damaged or operated sprin-
klers. Prior to installation, sprinklers should be maintained in
their original cartons and packaging until used to minimize
the potential for damage to sprinklers that would cause im-
proper operation or non-operation.
