Types of Fire Sprinkler Systems
When you are thinking about fire sprinkler system installation, you have a number of options—each will afford you a slightly different level of fire protection suitable for different types of buildings.
Wet Pipe Fire Sprinkler Systems
By far the most common type of fire sprinkler system, wet pipe fire sprinklers are found in most homes and standard office buildings. In a wet pipe fire sprinkler, water is kept under pressure and stored throughout the sprinkler pipes and released by heat-activated sprinkler heads.
The advantage of having a wet pipe fire sprinkler system installed is that they activate instantly with no lag time after the fire sprinkler heads open.
Dry Pipe Fire Sprinkler Systems
Dry pipe fire sprinkler systems are similar to wet pipe systems, except the water is not stored in the pipes. Instead, the pipes are filled with pressurized air or nitrogen gas. When the sprinkler heads open, the gas is released and a valve opens that allows water to flow out through the open fire sprinkler heads.
This causes a slight delay (usually only a second) in water discharge, but it is useful in buildings where water could freeze if kept in the pipes.
Deluge Fire Sprinkler Systems
A deluge fire sprinkler system is very similar to a wet pipe fire sprinkler system, except the fire sprinkler heads are kept open at all times—they are not activated by heat. Once you install deluge fire sprinkler systems, they are operated by a special fire alarm that opens a valve to release the water when activated. Once the valve opens, it must be shut off manually.
Because of the potential for water damage, deluge fire sprinklers are not commonly found in homes or offices. Instead, they are used in places where rapid fire spread is a concern. You will most commonly find deluge fire sprinkler systems installed near high rise windows, warehouse bay entries, or anywhere else where a fire could escape quickly.
Pre-Action Fire Sprinkler Systems
A pre-action fire sprinkler system is a combination of a wet pipe and dry pipe fire sprinkler system. Basically, water is not stored in the pipes until a fire detection device detects a fire. At this point, the detection device opens a valve to let the water in before the sprinkler heads open. When the heads open, the pre-action fire sprinkler system reacts as quickly as a wet pipe fire sprinkler system.
Pre-action fire sprinkler systems are best suited for areas that are at high risk for serious water damage in the event of accidental fire sprinkler activation.
No matter the fire sprinkler system, you can trust the team of experts at Confires to install your system correctly and efficiently.
