ABSTRACT:
A sprinkler system is furnished for an existing building by placing in the air ducts above the hung ceilings main branch tubes made of plastic. The main branch tubes mounted in the air ducts are in fluid communication with sprinkler heads by connecting secondary branch tubes. Additional branch tubes are provided which connect the main branch tubes with the supply of water and which also allow for the avoidance of obstructions within any duct by rerouting the main branch tubes outside of the ducts until the obstruction is cleared. The invention receives the supply of water from an existing standpipe of a building, and is supplied with control means for regulating the flow of water.
