Fire Sprinkler Head Cleaning

[Robert Bowen]

Is there any regulatory site that states when and how fire sprinkler heads should be cleaned. I've reviewed NFPA 25 and didn't find anything. I'm the safety rep at a facility with several thousand sprinklers. Many are covered in thick dust and cob webs and I'm getting flack from maintenance saying they can not be dusted or cleaned; that they can only be replaced with ne ones.
