The IPEX CPVC Hanger Head Set 074289 offers a time saving installation method for proper placement of an automatic sprinkler before the ceiling is installed.
The hanger head set in a side-mount position, as shown in Figure 2, provides accurate vertical positioning of the sprinkler thereby assuring a desirable uniform sprinkler deflector-to-ceiling positioning of the sprinklers. Due to the unique design of the Hanger Head Set, “blocking” is not required to offset the centerline of piping to accommodate the sprinkler escutcheon from the side of the joist. With the fasteners provided, the hanger head set is intended to be attached directly to the side of a solid wood framing member or the side of a structural composite wood joist of minimum 3/8 in. thickness OSB (Oriented Strand Board) web member or equivalent.
Note: The IPEX CPVC Hanger Head Set 074289 is designed for use with IPEX “West Coast” style Sprinkler Head Adapters.
