The fire protection sprinkler system responds at all times even
when there are no people in the building.
A fire sprinkler system will automatically (in most cases) notify
the emergency services.
There is less smoke and heat damage in a building as the fire is
extinguished at an early stage.
Enhanced security, occupants of a building will not be subject
to as much danger as they would be in a building without a sprinkler
system.
As sprinkler-controlled fires are less damaging than any other
fire, there will be lower insurance costs for buildings with a fire
sprinkler system installed.
Misconceptions about the Sprinkler System
There are many misconceptions about sprinkler systems. Typical misunderstandings
include:
It is often thought that sprinklers will automatically operate
when they are exposed to smoke. This is not the case. The function
by thermal impact against fitted heat detection elements with any
fire sprinkler design.
People tend to think that when one sprinkler is activated, all
sprinklers will start working. With the exception of special deluge
sprinkler systems, only the sprinklers in contact with the heat will
start running.
There is a preconception about sprinkler systems being prone to
leakage. This is not the case, these systems are tested on a very
regular basis (especially the fire sprinkler pressure is tested) and
only one of 16.000 residential fire sprinklers might leak.
There are more advantages than disadvantages to having a fir sprinkler
system installed. Fire sprinkler heads will do a great job of fighting
a fire even if you are not home, providing you and your family with
a high level of fire safety.
