Renovating a House w/Broken Sprinkler System

[Jonathan C.]

Hey guys- I've renovated a lot of houses but rarely come across any with built in sprinkler systems in the ceiling. I have one now, and I know it'd be easier just to cap it and remove it vs repairing it, but that's probably not to code.

What have you guys done with repairing or removing a sprinkler system that has had a lot of damage? My understanding is it can cost a lot to repair.

Thanks
