The valve should protrude through the drywall into the mechanical room for ease of operation. The wet line to this valve goes through the electrical runs out of the panels A & 0 and it will be impossible to mound insulation over the line in this area.. 2) A wet line is run over the top of the B 3/4 x 37 1 /2" beam supporting the roof_ The beam insulates the line from any interior heat_ This is unacceptable! 3) Insulation of wet line in attic- In the West 1/3 of the building, bait insulation has been mounded over the lines in a perpendicular direction_ This leaves a gap at each truss cord where blown insulation could seperate the line frorn the building heat_ The insulation used is R-11_ The truss cords are 2 x 6 and the lines are mounted on a 2 x furr up above that_ Assuming a 1" line and 12" of blown insulation, there would only be 3 1/2" of insulation over the line_ Another R-19 batt should be run over the existing batts and parallel with the line at all 2x6 truss cords. 4) Wet lines in the cart storage area are still adjacent to vents_ Either the lines should be moved or the mechanical engineer should be contacted about moving the vents_ Insulation 1) The insulation baffles specified at the eaves were not used. The insulation used as a baffle is too short and has fallen down in many places_ 2) The ceiling in the center section of the building is higher than on the East and West sides_reither side accomplish the this attic. tic_ there is a pony wall above beams o This area has been insulated but insulation is s heldeas. in place by, friction only and has fallen down in se veralis insulation should be stappl ed to hold it in place_ 3) Recessed lights- Sheet metal covers have been placed over the recessed lights_ This will keep rnsulation from egetting too closew to the lights_ An R-30 batt should be mounded over the sheet metal before insulation is blown in_ The beam at the entry does not extend out to the end of the steel column caps_ As the beam cannot be extended, the column caps should be cut back flush with the end of the beam and painted.

July 23, 1990 Mr. Andy Laidlaw McCall Design P.O. Box 729 McCall, ID 83638 SUBJECT: McCALL GOLF COURSE CLUBHOUSE - FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEM Dear Andy, The following is my summary of the sequence of events for the fire sprinkler system at the clubhouse: First, the specifications were written as a performance specification for a bidder design system. We originally specified it to be a "dry" system because we didn't know if the building would be heated in winter or not. We now know that it will. Ron Stenquist at Treasure Valley Fire Protection called me on the bid day and discussed with me some ambiguities in the specifications. There were some references to components for a "wet" system. He discussed with me why using a "wet/dry" system would be better and could save the Owner some money. I agreed with his reasoning, but I told him that there was not enough time to write an addendum, so he would have to bid it the way he interpreted the specifications. He said he thought everyone else would bid it "wet/dry" so he said he would too. Treasure Vally Fire Protection did end up being the low fire sprinkler bidder from the bid depository. I do not know what the other bids were or if they bid it all "dry" or not. When the shop drawings came in, they, looked alright, even though they showed a "wet/dry" system. I assumed that any questions about the bids had been settled by the General Contractor. As far as there being any inherent problems with the "wet/dry" system, I don't see any. We need to get insulation over the elbow that was touching the roof deck and we need to add heat to the electrical room. Other than that, as long as the electric heat remains on in the building, and all wet piping is covered with insulation, there shouldn't be any problems. I would also point out that the openings in the cart storage area need to be covered with insulating panels for winterization. The Fire Sprinkler Contractor says that there are several "wet" systems in McCall. He also mentioned that even a "dry" system has water in the heads that can freeze, unless each one is drained individually, each time the system is tested (usually once a year). I think you'll find that other fire sprinkler contractors will agree that there are no more problems with "wet" systems than with "dry" ones. Our specifications did state "dry system" in the scope of work section. The Contractor designed a "wet/dry" system. As the designer he will warrantee his design just as we do. If he has any reservations about his installed system freezing and causing building damage, he would say so and he would do what was necessary to alleviate any potential problems. I'm sure he would also be willing to state this in a letter. Please call if you have any questions. Sincerely, ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS, INC. Steve Bastian
