the flexible hose by following the applicable instructions in the “Connection to Sprinkler
Piping” and “Connecting the Sprinkler Reducing Nipple to the Flexible Hose” sections.

the “Sprinkler Installation” section.

Drill a hole into the wall or ceiling
at the desired location. Refer to the
sprinkler manufacturer’s installation
instructions for the required hole size.

the hole cut into the wall or ceiling
in Step 2. Secure the Style AB3
Bracket to the wall or ceiling using
1/4-inch/6-mm diameter screws through

side of the bracket. Tighten the two
screws completely until the bracket

ceiling.
NOTE: The selected screws
shall be appropriate for the wall or

manufacturer’s instructions for each
application.
