here is a question for you as you probably know in new installations anti freeze is frowned upon it seems possble that a fire hose can be attached to the sprinkler system so my question to you is could a dry sprinkler system be attached to a fire hose valve to function as a dry hose valve? thoughts please thank you

[@silcofireandsecurity]

@Fredengle thank you for the question and we hope this answers it for you - Yes, you can have a dry pipe system with a hose connection, similar to a setup in a parking garage where there's a hose attachment on each floor. However, an antifreeze system will not have a hose attachment. it's more typically used in localized applications, like a hotel foyer or over a garbage crusher.

[@Fredengle]

hI my new question for you is could a hose be connected to a pre action system?

[@PraxZimmerman]

Any chance you could cover inert gas systems?

[@silcofireandsecurity]

Thank you for the comment, and great idea! We'll see if we can come up with a video that explains these systems. Keep checking in and be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any new video updates!

Only reliable and victaulic make a pre action “valve”. That particular system you have is a tyco and Viking is the same thing. They don’t make a pre action “valve”. There systems consist of a deluge valve with a check valve on top of it for the supervisory air which also consists of having a solenoid valve to make it single interlock and some have dry pilot actuators right after the solenoid to make it a double interlock.

Got a question for you does new information state a side wall sprinkler can be effectively installed in a dead air space? Thoughts please thank you
