What a great training day and connection these guys built. Can’t wait to be a part of this once I get my GED. I’m stoked. I hope it’s like this for me. I would’ve loved to be there doing this.

Pulled a live head one time. Luckily there was only around 100 psi behind it. Changing concealed heads in a hard lid. Before I could even do the wiggle it shot out into my barrel like a cannon. 1/2” nipple valve saved me. Minimal damage. Water only ran for for a couple seconds. Seemed like forever though. Def the sickest feelings ive ever had in my career.

What’s PSI? I’m gonna be getting my GED soon. Got two tests left. And I’m getting into Sprinkler Fitting after. So I wanna know everything.

As fun as it looks in a controlled environment it’s by far the most fucked up feeling you could ever have in this trade.

It's obviously for fun guy's, come on. They're laughing and having a good time. It is good practice doing SOMETHING (besides freaking out and not knowing) when water hits like that.

If sprinkler heads are mounted on the ceiling how come all their heads are above the sprinkler heads while on the ladder. In real life they would be working with their arms in the air.

Not even a lot of pressure. Lol. Any real fitter knows you're going to bring a slam valve to stop the open outlet not the head. This 30 psi bullshit doesn't happen in the real world.

Fuck putting a head back in on a live system. Should be practicing with a slam valve for this event.

That's why you NEVER pull a sprinkler head without having a 1/2" nipple and ball valve handy.

That's funny. The only time I ever had to re-install a live head was working in 483! (669. 38yrs.) Rotunda building, Oakland, circa 2001. Luckily the pressure was really low.

it's a half inch valve. You install it in the open position because you WILL NOT be able to with it closed. Never pulled a live head either, but I practice the wiggle method lol. ON EVERY head or drop I pull.....

TheJaybee61 but don't you turn off the pump when replacing sprinkler heads? Why would you have the sprinkler heads working when there isn't a fire? Why would it have pressure. The water is nasty oil water that sits even after you turn off the pump and drain the system.

Do that shit at 175-220 psi, then you’ll be a man. This looks like about 30-50 psi.
