Description
This Derby Style Test Header Connection probably used to be bright red, but time and the hot San Antonio elements have faded it to this gorgeous rusted pink and steel mixture.
At first I thought this was another sprinkler connector on the exterior of a downtown San Antonio building. Bbut after unsuccessfully searching I had to break down and ask my fireman husband. This is how I found out it is not a standard sprinkler connection. He said it looked like an inspector valve. Using that info I was able to figure out it is testing connection, and this style is sometimes referred to as a Derby style.. I guess maybe because it looks like a derby hat? What do you think?
...ps - don't tell my husband he was right! I'd never hear the end of it!!
