Sprinklers which are found to be
leaking or exhibiting visible signs of
corrosion must be replaced.

Automatic sprinklers must never be
shipped or stored where its tempera-
ture will exceed 100

°

C and they

must never be painted, plated, coated,
or otherwise altered after leaving the
factory. Modified sprinklers must be
replaced. Sprinklers that have been
exposed to corrosive products of
combustion, but have not operated,
should be completely cleaned by
wiping the sprinkler with a cloth or by
brushing it with a soft bristle brush.

Care must be exercised to avoid
damage - before, during, and after
installation. Sprinklers damaged by
dropping, striking, wrench twist/
slippage, or the like, must be re-
placed. Also, replace any sprinkler
that has a cracked bulb or that has
lost liquid from its bulb (Ref. Installa-
tion Section).
The Central Model BV-R1 must only
be replaced with pendent sprinklers
which are listed for residential fire
protection service and which have the
same nominal K-factor, the same
coverage area, and the same or lower
flow ratings (as indicated under
"Design Criteria").
When remodeling, such as by adding
false beams or light fixtures or
changing the location of compartment
walls, first verify that the new con-
struction will not violate the installation
requirements stated under WARN-
INGS. Alter the new construction and/
or the sprinkler system to suit the
requirements of this document.

The owner is responsible for the
inspection, testing, and maintenance
of their fire protection system and

cable standards of the National Fire
Protection Association (e.g., NFPA

other authorities having jurisdiction.
The installing contractor or sprinkler
