A regular inspection will ensure this.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cleaning:<\/strong> Clean the siamese connection from dust or dirt. Because the siamese connection is usually placed outside, this device is prone to dirt and dust. Cleaning will prevent any clog that will interfere with the fire extinguishing process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Check the water and electricity condition: <\/strong>Make sure that the water and electricity flows are not obstructed by dirt or damage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t modify or repair the siamese connection by yourself: <\/strong>If there is a problem with the siamese connection, you should contact a professional technician to fix it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Standard:<\/strong> To ensure that your siamese connection will perform as it should be.
