What’s the best way to release all that pressure safely after the test is complete
Just open the drain valve a little until the pressure goes down .
@@SprinklerFittingI almost got my head blown off taking off a coupling after another guy said the pressure was released
@dontoday I know what you mean ! I always verify the gauge and position of valves before I undo anything .
This is verey interesting job i love it
Great video!
Poor explanation 😢
Sorry didn’t have time draw cartoons and stick figures.
I'm a fitter for over 25 years and that's why my comment, you just confused people...!!!!
I don't ream I make money
I always ream . If you dont then an un- reamed pipe creates pressure loss .
Many decades ago a company didnt have a reamer attached to the carriage , when the city inspector noticed this they wouldnt pass the inspection until all the threaded piping was removed and replaced .
What you should do is take this video, sit down in front of a mic and narrate whats going on and what materials you are using. Maybe even pause the video and circle or point out specific things.
I just started as a fitter this Friday, learned how to do these things for the first time, working for a sprinkler company. How long does it take for the body to adjust to lifting the heavy pipe?
It will take a while , most important is to lift properly , bend at the knees , dont rotate body with pipe on shoulder as you will get lower back injury , need to turn with you feet keeping body straight . If it heavy get help , use mechanical means when possible , pipe cart ,pipe cricket etc . Dont be a hero as your boss wont pay your bills if you get hurt . Take your time .
I cannot find those blue protective covers...
They come with new sprinklers . Not sure if you can order them . Just use tin foil , easy to remove .
Need to apply Teflon tape for work tomorrow what do you mean by "do this"?
That was my attempt to affect the algorithm
Jack the hanger up next time and you’ll get less water
Como se llama la tapa que se le pone al mio se le cayo una i no la encuentro como sellama y donde las consigo porfa si es tan amable de darme esa información
se llaman escudo de placa oculto, depende de la marca que haya instalado, si quita uno del siguiente adyacente tendrá una etiqueta con su nombre en el interior con el número de modelo y la clasificación de temperatura. serán comerciales o residenciales, las marcas más populares son Tyco, Victaulic o Globe. necesitará encontrar un proveedor de rociadores contra incendios en su área; en Canadá utilizamos Wolesely, Emco, National Fire o Flocor.
What is the correct term for the pull up set thingys?
Actuator
I had no idea the escutcheons screwed in like that, I assumed they were just plastic caps 🤔
They are metal , mostly tin i believe .
i was taught the not so PC name for it lol.
stupid question, but how would you determine the hole is square to the staircase before drilling?
Just need to have a good eye .There will be a wall built later .
You could set a square off the back wall and then subtract 1/2 the outside diameter of the pipe .
I went there
Nice basic video. Just a tip for any guys that have never seen the ridgid 975’s manual before..that silver/chrome dial up on top is a depth setter. No need to use a groove tape if you know how to set the machine properly for the diameter of pipe you are using. In my 15+ years in the trade I’ve never seen a guy actually know what it did and I used to teach 20+ year journeymen what it was for as a junior. Only reason I knew was because I started as a shop kid and used to assemble/repair all the tools and gangboxes as part of my job and the 975 is the most commonly used roll groover by a far margin. As a bonus tip, anyone who likes a 915 in-air, the 975 can be flipped around and function in-air as well.
We're do you get that from that clamp that goes on pipe?
Its called a Pilot Clamp . Sprinkler wholesale might sell them . You can also google the name . National Fire Pilot Clamp . Comes in a yellow box .
@@SprinklerFitting thank you so much
Never pull a head without it here….
That’s definitely an odd one for sure, I’d have to get a better look personally. My initial thought would be those windows aren’t properly fire-rated and this is some sort of goofy means to avoid having to change the casings after they were already installed by mistake? This would’ve been something I kicked back at the GC/engineers if I was running the job. The “lower” heads might be meant to be providing coverage for the means of egress coming out of that entryway, but even if that was the cause they would need to be down below that “wall” to provide adequate coverage.
All the heads are exposed to the elements , sunlight and there is no heat collection possible .
From a 3rd generation fitter with 12 years under my belt I’ll say I can tell you take pride in your work BUT PLEASE tell me you went through and put plugs in all the ball valves. Trust me when I tell you a box of plugs is well worth not having to go out and reset a dry valve cause some idiot hits a handle they shouldn’t be touching.
Ill put plugs after i finish testing and tripping the system . This is a new building with six parkade levels . I put street 90's on the ends so i dont dirty the walls when i drain the system , i do know what you mean though .....
Perfect explanation
Glad you think so!
@@SprinklerFitting I'm installing one it's a 6500 unit for two risers
Great , Just follow instructions in the book that comes with it .
Awesome
wow look at that creep lol
Did the panel rest?
Yes
More energy more passion more footwork more footwork more energy
I want my mommy
Do I have to have to have any certification or training to shut this off
Great question and one that i am not sure of either . I am allowed because the building owners , property managers etc give their permission to do it . Sometimes it is me and sometimes the building engineer who does it . I dont have any specific training or certifications from the manufacturer . All i have is my Journeyman Sprinklerfitter certification from my Provincial authority .So i dont believe you need any to just shut it off . You do need certification to do actual work on the fire pumps for alignments , yearly inspection etc . There is also ASTT certification to do that as well as training from the manufacturers . If anybody else would like to comment on their jurisdictional requirements please do so .
The people who do have the training to commission , align and certify are in high demand . You dont need to be a Sprinklerfitter to take the course offered by the manufacturer.
What size cutting wheel is that
The pipe size is 1 inch , the cutting die head is set to 1 inch . It is adjustable up to 2 inch .
Pull the wires if you can’t disable the panel!🤦🏻
I'm thinking about adding some shiplap to my ceiling. The shiplap will add about a half inch to the ceiling. Will i be able to use the existing covers or do they sell new ones that are larger? Thanks for your time and video!
It depends on which sprinkler head you have . If you have a Globe 1 inch drop sprinkler head then its possible . The Globe Sprinkler Head has a deep escutcheon . Any other sprinkler head then you would need to remove the head and extend the pipe or remove the head and add a listed 1/2 inch male x female threaded coupling . Your best option would be to remove the Sprinkler Head and replace it with the Globe 1 inch drop . If it is a residential property then you would need a residential sprinkler head .
Appreciate your fast response, looks like I'll have to do some research but at least it's doable. Thanks!
Unscrew the escutcheon and see if it will give you a 1/2 inch gap before it comes off . If it does then your lucky . Also look at the deflector inside the sprinkler head , it should drop below the finished height of your new ceiling . If you do need to change the sprinkler head you dont need to cut the drywall ! The Sprinkler head has a special wrench that attaches to a 1/2 ratchet and it fits inside the Sprinkler head . I would recommend asking a Sprinkler Fitter to do the work .
Ya, absolutely. I just remembered I have a friend that used to work for Grinnell and was certified in sprinkler systems. Thanks!
Have the bigger modle to that we been using the exacter cutter in NZ for a number of years now 👌🏽
Im never going to use the scissor cutters again ! 😂😅 that would be like watching black and white TV 🤣
Thanks for this, new to a seismic area and when they told me to go and install seismic bracing, I had no idea how they went about it.
If you have any questions let me know .
The video is showing how to attach to steel beams . If attaching to concrete then use 1/2 inch concrete wedge anchors .
The sprinkler drawing should indicate where the bracing is needed . Generally every change of direction is a 4 way brace , then 40 ft is a 2 way ,then 4 way at 80 ft . Longitudinal and lateral . 1 inch pipe is used for bracing under 7 ft , over 7 feet then use 1.25 inch pipe .
you'll never get strong if you don't swing a 6-8" cutter
After 30 years of pushing that cutter around pipe my shoulders say im never going back ! If i cant cut with the exact cutter then somebody else can do it 😂😅I hurt my back last year pushing that cutter , couldnt put my socks on !
that sucks, some guys get real good cutting with the band saw, I'm 63 still cutting pipe, I'll probably have my helper do it now lol @@SprinklerFitting
Im working alone as all the fitters and apprentices are working on bigger projects with a tight schedule. We could hire 20 more if we could find them . Same with other Sprinkler companies . Im doing a 10 story office tower with 6 underground parkade levels .Originally it was 6 levels but developer decided to add 4 more commercial levels and a 30 story residential tower on top of that due to the new subway line and zoning changes . My company doesnt do residential . The schedule has been slow so im able to keep up . Its never been a better time to be a tradesman in B.C. 👍🏻
no dark gloves on finish work, white gloves or wash clean hands, god vid
Gloves were new . Company policy is gloves at all times .
good explanation
not enough exercise
Oof
Nice job and a great video!
Thanks I have watched a few of yours as well .
black pipe, not galvy, weekly maintenance on drum drips, maintenance folks job. good vid, thanks
Why not galv that was my first thought. Not New England maybe.
galvy for dry pipe, black for wet, but to each their own.@@Throplife
We dont use galvanized pipe unless its specified by client . It is more expensive .
Also remember guys, his code requirements in Canada may be different than ours. We follow NFPA..what’s that first letter? NATIONAL and Canada is a different nation than the US lol.
Not sure what to say 🤣🤣🤣
What’s the part #?

You don't have to put Teflon and wasted as long as you put plenty of dope on it real talk
I was there!!!!!
Lovely
I guess there is no need to get the burs filed off……
Not really ,hole saw cuts clean hole , if the area where the rubber sits has scratches or burrs then i would file ,
Horizon! Keep your Eye on the Horizon! Horizon? You mean, the "Moon?" 😂

Hey I was there Saturday! Really sick show
This was Friday .
Dear Sir, Pls Clarify what standard is applying for this sprinkler?
