⚠️ IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Sprinkler head integration must be coordinated with the local fire sprinkler contractor and comply with all local building and fire codes.

The fire sprinkler contractor is responsible for supplying, installing, and approving the sprinkler head and flexible connection.

Sprinkler Head Location Options

Sprinkler heads may be routed into the Air3 pod using one of the following approved methods:

• Through a single roof blade
• Through a wall panel
• Through the service hoop

Sprinkler Integration – End Roof Blade Fixed

Example shown: Air23 pod with opening roof where a single end roof blade is fixed in place.

• The fire sprinkler contractor supplies and installs a flexible sprinkler head
• The contractor advises on the required hole size in the roof blade
• The fixed blade allows the sprinkler to remain correctly positioned

Sprinkler Integration – Center Roof Blade Fixed

Example shown: Air23 pod with opening roof where a single center roof blade is fixed in place.

• Fire sprinkler contractor supplies and installs the flexible sprinkler head
• Hole size and exact location are determined by the sprinkler contractor
• Fixed blade ensures reliable sprinkler coverage

Disconnecting a Single Roof Blade

To keep a single roof blade permanently closed for sprinkler integration:

• Disconnect the selected roof blade from the actuator‑controlled track
• This prevents the blade from opening during normal roof operation

This method is typically used when a sprinkler head passes through a fixed roof blade.

Critical Notes

• All sprinkler work must be completed by a licensed fire sprinkler contractor
• Hole sizing and placement must be approved by the sprinkler contractor
• Only one roof blade should be fixed when integrating a sprinkler
• Ensure the roof blade is fully disconnected from the actuator system
