More extreme close-range footage of destructive #tornado going through Andover Ks. Had bird in the air, attempted to deploy pressure and tornado was on top of me. Went from 10 to 300 mph in seconds
NFPA joins @USCPSC to demonstrate the fire dangers of turkey fryers in the live burn. @NFPA strongly discourages the use of turkey fryers. For more safety tips and information on safe cooking visit https://t.co/rlc3ykgUqk #Thanksgiving

Big thanks to @TycoSG Baltimore for stoping by to help @NFSAorg wire up a new @PotterElectric remote flow test switch in our amazing Live Fire 🔥 sprinkler/Standpipe training trailer.
On 9/25/03 a fire at a Nashville nursing home killed 16. The bldg was exempt from required sprinklers. A 2nd floor fire trapped many immobile patients. The tragedy resulted in Medicaid and Medicare requiring all nursing homes to have sprinklers by 8/13. #FireHistory#NeverForget
Research shows that replacing air pockets in fire sprinkler systems with 99% nitrogen increases the average life expectancy by 2.8x!

As a fire prevention advocate, I have two priorities when it comes to sprinklers...1) get them installed, and 2) insure they’ll work when needed. Very few things are more important for no. 2 than preventing corrosion. #nitrogenworks!

Potter’s AquaN2 Kit is designed to quickly and effectively exhaust oxygenated air from a wet fire protection system and replace it with high purity nitrogen gas. When combined with Potter’s PAAR-B or PAV, 99.9% of oxygen can be removed from a wet system.

One of the leading contributors to corrosion is trapped air in wet pipe systems. Potter Air Vents are designed to reduce the amount of air in a fire sprinkler system with little or no maintenance.

I am humbled and honored to serve with such a great group of folks. Can't wait to get started building on the tremendous successes of the past leaders and take AFAA to new heights!
Had a thought today while I sat in hours of meetings. Double or triple the number of people who normally attend are making online code development meetings. It will be interesting to see how the process evolves.
