sprinkler system protects not only property but also life, and is often ‘mission critical’; this means it is essential to prioritise how you design, install and maintain your system.
Automatic sprinkler systems are generally recognised as the most effective way to protect people and property from fire.
Not only are sprinklers very effective at what they do – containing and suppressing fire, sounding a local alarm, calling the fire and rescue service and restricting the growth of fire – but there is clear evidence that when a fire occurs in a sprinkler protected building, the fire and property damage incurred is a tiny percentage of that which is likely in an unprotected building.
Sprinklers are also very effective at protecting lives, including the lives of fire fighters, and in the UK there has never been a multiple life loss in a building fitted with a properly designed, working sprinkler system. In industrial and commercial buildings, recent real-life incidents have demonstrated the value of sprinkler systems in promoting business resilience, with warehouses and factories back at work the day after a fire.
Effective Installation
The reliability and efficacy of sprinklers demand installations which are:
• Designed strictly in accordance with published national and international standards
• Installed by competent contractors who hold third-party certification from an independent, third-party certification body
• Subject to regular inspections and maintained in accordance with national and international standards.
