LIVETAP Live sprinkler system modifications.
LIVETAP
Sprinkler modifications without the added hassle, cost and time of draining down.
Livetap is a major innovation for making modifications to sprinkler systems. No drain down is required, making it the simplest, fastest and most cost effective way to make modifications while complying with all fire sprinkler system codes.
UNDER PRESSURE DRILLING
The Livetap under pressure drilling concept has been developed to address the issues that arise when planning and implementing modifications and additions to existing sprinkler systems, and modifying existing sprinkler head locations.
Livetap allows qualified engineers to undertake work on live systems, without the need to drain down. Fire protection is maintained at all times during the sprinkler works. Consequently there is no need to advise fire authorities or close the building while work is in progress, minimising business disruption.
Using Livetap ensures no dirty water discharge, no difficult backfilling and no complex downtime arrangements, with the use of Livetap an engineer could add or move a sprinkler head in under two hours.
