Ceiling-mounted automatic sprinkler head, painted over

FIELD PHOTO · CCPIA® ComSOP §6.5.12

 

DEFICIENCY NOTED

Automatic sprinkler head painted over. Coating can—and will—prevent the heat-sensitive element from activating in a fire. Component present; protection compromised.

RECOMMENDATION—Evaluation by a qualified fire sprinkler contractor. Replace as soon as possible.

The sprinkler head is mounted and in the right spot. It looks like protection—and the day there's a fire, it's absolutely useless.

You find deficiencies in building systems. We find them in policy language.


OREP insurance

At OREP, we flag commercial policies that exclude the inspections you're performing—restaurants, industrial, commercial kitchens. What looks like legitimate coverage is as useless as the painted-over sprinkler head—and your whole business could go up in flames.

 

OREP commercial coverage—built in partnership with CCPIA® to the full ComSOP.

If it's in the ComSOP, it's in the policy—including the systems most carriers exclude, like the one in that photo.
