Summary
During an inspection, it was observed that the sprinkler escutcheon ring in the main office paper supply closet had slid down around the sprinkler head. This condition prevents the sprinkler from functioning as designed in the event of a fire. The issue was identified through direct observation and confirmed in an interview with the maintenance director at the time of the inspection. The facility failed to provide proper maintenance and testing of the sprinkler system as required by NFPA 25, resulting in a deficiency that could affect all occupants in the event of a fire.
