I. Introduction 

 
 
Dropmaster’s family of tools utilizes the most advanced combination vacuum siphoning and 
water discharge system available on the market to aid the fire protection contractor during the 
change out of sprinkler heads.   Our innovative design allows for a clean effective way to 
change sprinkler heads.  The Dropmaster will allow a sprinkler fitter to change heads with no 
residual odor or water coming from the sprinkler piping network when a head is removed or the 
system is breached.   Sprinkler fitters will only need a minute or two to change each sprinkler 
head in a finished ceiling area.  The Dropmaster’s unique combination of water siphoning and 
discharge will allow the fire protection contractors’ fitters to work in a safe, clean environment 
while producing cost effective results.  The Fire Protection Contractor benefits by saving time, 
the client benefits because there is less disruption, less down time and less clean up. 
 
Dropmaster siphoning system utilizes technology that removes odor and water from a sprinkler 
system by creating a vacuum in the sprinkler piping network; when a sprinkler head is removed 
or the system is breached a siphoning action takes place removing both water and odor.  
Dropmaster is designed to maintain a 10” HG vacuum at all times.  The machine is designed to 
maintain that level of vacuum because the manufacturers of grooved couplings recommend not 
exceeding 10” HG of vacuum pressure.   
 
The 20 feet of flexible vacuum hose allows for a quick and easy connection to any drain.  
Connect the hose, activate the power source and the Dropmaster is ready to GECCO. 
 
The Dropmaster Mini E is rugged, portable and constructed to be transported in a service truck 
or van.  The unit (2’ x 2’-6”) is built on a handcart and designed to fit through a hospital, 
nursing home, motel or office standard door opening.  Dropmaster comes with an electric motor 
(120-volt 20-amp circuit required). 

No extension cords.

 

 
The Dropmaster comes standard with an automatic draining system. Please note the draining 
system should be protected from freezing temperatures.
