I’ve been in fire alarm for about 3 years on the install now transitioning to service and inspections. The simple explanation on the sprinkler side really helped clear things up
Kevin, yes it does. In colder climates they are often covered with insulating blankets. I live and worked in an area that is warmer climate in SoCal, so rarely issues with winter weather unless at higher elevations. However, around 2003 we had a super cold winter and I was inspecting a Junior high that day and the back flow preventer/OS&Y had sprung a leak. But, it was quite humorous that the leak was a small spray and it was so cold it was making snow like a snow making machine and the students were throwing snowballs etc. Here is a website I found that talks about insulating blankets and other methods to protect equipment during cold weather. backflowdirect.com/blog/tips-to-prepare-your-backflow-preventer-for-cold-weather

I'm doing a paper in college right now on fire protection, detection, and suppression systems and this just cleared up everything so thank you
Great stuff, thank you!
Thank you.
Excellent explanation. Thank you 👍🏽
Thank you, it is for fire tech students so it is just the basics.
@6:11 😂😂😂 Thank you for the informative video and the laugh.
Sorry for the wind issues with sound.
Cold weather ever cause problems?

Bro it’s only a supervisory they would never call the fire department for that. They will call the people on the call list that CENTRAL STATION has.
You need to rewatch the video BRO, he never said they’d call the fire department.
Yup. That is right.
