Tuesday, July 11, 2023 DF: A List of Spare Sprinklers was provided for the Spare Sprinkler Head Box. However, The list contains VK302 - 155° Pendent, VK300 - 155° Upright, VK462 - 155° Concealed and VK305 - 200° Sidewall Heads. The Sprinkler Plan Head Legend shows: VK3021 QR - 155° Rec Pendent, VK4621 QR - 155° Concealed, VK3001 QR - 155° Upright, VK305 QR - 200° Sidewall, and VK3001 QR - 200° Upright Heads.

There is a large discrepancy with the types and numbers of sprinklers on the plans and the list representing the replacements for the installed heads.

An Approved Spare Sprinkler List will be required to be installed in the spare head box at time of the Sprinkler Fire Final in order to receive an approved Final inspection.
