I've had one 2 years ago in 7th grade. It was 5th period and we were enjoying ourselves in class when all of a sudden, the fire alarms went off. Apparently 2 8th graders were pushing each other continuously until they eventually pushed each other into the fire alarm making them go off. It was kinda funny though, lol

Earlier this week, my apartment building’s fire alarm went off at 8:30 AM. I thought it was an actual emergency. I called 911. I happened to see an alarm company person telling me he was testing the alarms. None of us residents got ANY prior notice of any scheduled tests. I contacted the local fire captain. He was quite disturbed by the lack of prior communication. Advance notice is required by city code regarding any scheduled fire alarm testing where I live. Evidently, no one from the alarm company notified the property management of any scheduled tests.

Nice video! Although, working as an irrigation tech I can explain the backflow situation. A backflow is required not for rust, but bacteria that grows in a stagnant section of pipe. Whether it is copper, pvc, galvanized, or PEX - bacteria will grow in any section of pipe where water is not constantly flowing. Should you ever loose house pressure or city pressure, you risk the bacteria ridden water getting into your potable water supply, or worse yet, your neighbors. I have thought about adding something like what you have for my house. I would use the concepts that the uponor PEX sprinkler system follows to eliminate the backflow requirement. Tie the toilet into the end of your sprinkler lateral. Every time you flush, fresh water flows into your pipes and flushes them. Then, set an alarm verification delay on your panel to accommodate how the length of time your toilet takes to refill plus some to be safe. At the end of the day, this is not something I suggest simply to “satisfy” the requirements. This is for your safety, you can get really, REALLY sick if you don’t do this step right or again, even worse, your neighbors. And don’t even get me started on the brain eating amoebas that can thrive in stagnant water lines. Edit: I saw your comment about asking a plumber. If that plumber would suggest that in my neck of the woods they would face MAJOR fines and possibly lose their license. Backflow requirements are absolutely no joke and not one of those “what they don’t know won’t hurt them” situations because yes, what they don’t know CAN hurt them!!!

I do agree with what you're saying which is why the system is flushed monthly I do have a question though not to argue as I do understand what you were saying but I am wondering how it differs from abandoned dead ended sections of plumbing that are still connected to the supply with no backflow I don't see how that differs?

@@nics-systems-electric Leaving a long dead run of pipe is also against code in most areas for this same reason. General rule of thumb iirc is 12” or less of dead pipe is acceptable. Anything longer needs to be permanently capped off due to the health hazard of water that will go stagnant in the pipe.

@@nics-systems-electric Generally the amount of chlorine in drinking water is very, very low. It’s enough to keep the bacteria down under normal circumstances but it also dissipates/gets used up fairly quickly once it leaves your tap, or if stuck in a section of dead-end pipe. I also have seen this in practice here from time to time, but I think that comes down to homeowners doing their own plumbing work or perhaps pure ignorance on the plumbers behalf. Again the general notion of “what they don’t know won’t hurt them” but water contamination/cross connection control is one code that really should be followed with no exceptions. As long as you stay diligent on keeping the water in your pipes flushed you should be just fine. But tread with caution, and perhaps try to find another solution that doesn’t require such diligence.

I know you said you were unlikely to ever change the system, but have you thought of replacing the alarms with Eaton’s Eluxa line to get fire and CO in one signal? I’m also pretty sure that the current LED strobes you have are no longer listed (at least for UL, not sure about ULC) due to their long flash duration.

Or you can even do it with 3/4" And Four 3 Because I notice everything I've noticed that you've installed a Industrial light fixture On your Generator room.
