Fire Sprinklers in USA
Fire Sprinkler
A fire sprinkler system is an active fire protection method with a water supply system that reduces the risk of heat, flames and smoke.
Types of Fire Sprinkler Systems
Regardless of project complexity, our licensed Fire Protection Specialists recommend fire sprinkler system installation solutions that safeguard lives and property while meeting the latest code requirements and insurance guidelines. Sprinkler systems are the most common type of suppression, and may include:
Wet Pipe Systems
Cost-efficient and requiring little maintenance, wet pipe fire sprinklers maintain a constant supply of water. When exposed to sufficient heat, they activate promptly to discharge water. Unfortunately, wet pipe systems are not suitable for low-temperature environments or high-impact areas.
Dry Pipe Systems:
Designed for sub-freezing environments, dry pipe fire sprinklers are filled with pressurized air. As sprinklers are heat-activated, the air is flushed from pipes and water flows through the piping. Dry pipe systems are often used in unfinished warehouses, freezer rooms, and outdoor loading docks.
Pre-Action Systems:
Water is not contained in pre-action system pipes. Instead, it is held back by a “pre-action valve” that activates with smoke detection or flame exposure. To prevent a pre-action system from being triggered inadvertently, many include pressurized air as an added level of protection. Because of these built-in fail-safes, pre-action sprinkler systems are useful for environments like fine art galleries, data centers, and libraries.
