TRAINING AND DEMONSTRATION
Johnson Controls strongly recommends that installers receive hands on demonstration in the proper procedure(s) for installation of BLAZEMASTER fire sprinkler systems. On-site demonstration in proper pipe preparation, solvent cementing, proper handling of CPVC and installation instruction are available from Johnson Controls at no charge. Upon completion of the TYCO demonstration program, Johnson Controls will issue a completion card to the persons successfully finishing the required subject matter. This card is to be carried when working on TYCO CPVC systems. For information about on-site demonstration, contact your local Johnson Controls Distribution Center or your Johnson Controls sales representative.
