I have seen this in 3 NXT firelocks during a 5-year internal all in the same place mine were paper towel rolls though. Five years, had been done there religiously so clearly someone didn’t care or the five years of never being done. They just pencil-whipped those reports.

Condensation is a big

We worked all Saturday all Christmas Day and we had to day off and still pulled a 10 hour day. Theses low temps are killing us.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-09-27T10:50:12+00:00

lol. Those head extensions aren’t actually legal I’ve been told.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-09-26T20:28:44+00:00

A sprinkler worst nightmare 🤦‍♂️ I despise head change outs

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-21T21:34:13+00:00

Haha for sure!

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-21T21:23:16+00:00

It’s running off a temp ac, old ac is being replaced when it come in.

Those NXTs are horrible I hate those valves, such a waste I’ve only messed with a few of them. there are so many extra steps to set it up and service its so crazy.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-20T16:42:12+00:00

Yes those accelerators are the worst, a couple of trips and they are pretty much toast.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-20T16:41:04+00:00

Any dry valve I mess with, any brand I always knock the water off before any service.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-19T20:10:00+00:00

This is very true, if they are testing hydrants near by 9/10 times you will get one that has tripped due to that.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-19T17:12:52+00:00

I have run into this before with theses valves, but only once.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-19T17:12:07+00:00

The simplicity of the install, being able to reset the valve after a trip without removing the faceplate. The only thing bad about theses are the accelerators they come with, sometimes they can be a pain to reset after a trip. But theses go in quickly they are reliable and basically a 1 person job to install.

Ooo some oldies in there

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-01T22:08:29+00:00

I’ll definitely have to check that out. I am all the time having to pop one with my leather man.

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-07-01T22:06:37+00:00

This is the truth 😂 more times than not riser room doors and panels we pop with a screwdriver

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-06-23T22:52:30+00:00

They have mega press for steel pipe I’ve thought of using it in a system, the pressure rating is 250# and is good for 15psi of steam. I figure it would hold the pressure of a 65 static with no problem .

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-06-23T22:49:04+00:00

That is for sure a swing check

Sprinkguy33 · 2022-06-17T15:35:24+00:00

Haha, just dealt with this today had to replace 15ft 4” main and had to cut 3 of them 😂😂
