NFPA issues warning about antifreeze in residential sprinklers

Yeah, I'd question using it in residential sprinklers too!

Hell ...... If they go off, it's going to stain the furniture!

not to mention the dead pets, from drinking the stuff...

So the NFPA is saying it's OK to walk the narrow line between having a substance in a sprinkler system that will stop the water from freezing but just "might" explode if it's not maintained properly?

( Golly gee whiz..... I wonder how many systems are not maintained properly? Oh well, they just might explode and kill someone. And if they do ...... it'll be their own damn fault. Would someone please pass the grits?)

If so, it really confirms my suspisions about them being just another good ol boys club mostly intent on finding out where the next annual Junket is going to be.

I think a class action lawsuit is in order here...

This is the exact backlash i warned my brother firefighters about before they got behind this residential sprinkler thing. well the roosters are calling and where are my brother firefighters no where to be found.

If the NFPA is involved ..... it would be a very LOW-class ...... action lawsuit.
