Ihave been servicing fire suppressions systems for close to 14 years and as I already know the answer to this I just thought I would get your opinion on this.. I recently took on a bunch of accounts. where they have moved the appliances under the hoods leaving them unprotectected from nozzle height and coverage requirements... My biggest issue if I understand the code correctly is that if the system is not UL 300 I can not alter it in any way... So being said if a restaurant moves the appliances under the hood or removes nozzles and such and a total repipe must be performed am I right to assume the whole system would need to be changed out if it is only a UL system and not a UL300 system... I have 4 stores so far that have actually removed pipe and nozzles or have installed new equipment with no nozzle coverage and the systems ( Mostly Range Guard ) are only UL listed and not UL 300.. I have previously Red Tagged these systems and sent in my comments about what I believe needs to be performed ie(new systems) but I have not heard back from the restaurants on this issue... Tough call for me..
