Prepare the installation

Install the sprinkler at the back of the pod.
Note: Use the hole at the back of the pod.
  1. Cut away the flap on the sheet metal surface plate. Use side cutters.
  2. Cut away the flap on the plywood plate. Use a key saw or a 83 mm (3 ΒΌ in) hole saw.
  3. Cut the three layers of acoustic material for leading a pipe through them. Use a utility knife or a 70-80 mm (3 1/3 in) hole saw.
    Note: Leave the ceiling felt intact.
    Note: Use snippers to remove the inner sheet metal from between the acoustic panels.
  4. Drill a pilot hole through the ceiling felt from above.
  5. Cut out the partially precut circle in the ceiling felt for the sprinkler head from the inside of the pod. Use a 48 mm (1 7/8 in) or 50 mm (2 in) hole saw. You can also use a utility knife.
