Main standard: NFPA 13
Automatic sprinkler system
Sprinklers that activate with heat to control the fire at its source, under NFPA 13.
System description
Automatic sprinklers act on their own: each sprinkler opens only when heat reaches it and discharges water over the area where the fire starts. We specialize in installing sprinkler systems in accordance with NFPA 13.
Sprinkler system design starts from the building’s hazard classification and the type of storage; that information defines the sprinkler layout and the piping calculations in accordance with the standard.
Depending on the conditions of the building, the system can be wet pipe, with water in the piping at all times, or dry pipe, preaction, or deluge, in which water waits behind a valve until the system activates.
The photos on this page show our crew’s work: on-site pipe grooving, overhead piping installation from an aerial lift, and completed piping under the roof.
