ABSTRACT:
A sprinkler cover is provided including a ceiling member and a pair of identical bracket members which are soldered to the ceiling member for thermal release. Each of the bracket members includes one or more upright arms. Each arm includes one or more cut tabs which constitute a separate member to engage with a deflector on a conventional fixed frame or drop-type pendent or ceiling sprinkler or with an arm supporting such deflector from the sprinkler body. The tabs are spaced at various heights from the base of the ceiling member to permit the cover to be mounted at adjustable heights on the deflector or the arms of the sprinkler. Frame-type sprinklers may be modified by the provision of one or more complementary engagement structures on one or both arms to engage one or a plurality of the bracket tabs.
