Should I Install A Fire Sprinkler System?

By admin on Friday, February 27th, 2015 in Fire Sprinklers.

The most basic fire protection system you can have is a sprinkler system. Yet many choose not to get them out of confusion. What are these strange silver things hanging from the roof and how can they possibly work? If you’re considering installing a sprinkler system, here are the facts you need to know. The sprinkler heads have tiny bulbs with coloured liquid inside that act to plug the head and stop water from escaping. When a fire is present, the liquid in the bulb expands quickly and bursts the glass, releasing a jet of water. A common myth is that sprinklers are unreliable and can be activated at any second by smoke or dust. This is definitely not the case. But you will activate a stream of water if you accidentally knock off one of the delicate bulbs. The liquid inside sprinkler bulbs varies in colour depending on the temperature it can withstand. It’s important to discuss this with one of our professionals so you have an understanding of your needs and the way this system will work in your home. Sprinkler systems are extremely effective and can reduce property loss and risk of death drastically whether installed in a home or industrial building.
