Living With Sprinklers

 

Protect Your System

Make sure nothing is blocking your sprinklers.

Keep pictures and large furniture away from sprinklers on walls.

Hang lamps and plants away from ceiling sprinklers.

Do not hang anything on sprinklers or pipes.

Even lightweight items can damage sprinklers.

Keep paint away from sprinklers or sprinkler covers.

While doing messy work, such as painting, cover the sprinklers with plastic. Remove the plastic as soon as you are finished.

Be careful when you are moving large or tall items.

Don’t bump sprinklers or exposed pipes. Teach children not to touch or play with sprinklers.
