While sprinklers may not completely put out a raging blaze, they often can mean the difference between individuals being able to safely exit the building and being trapped inside. The use of sprinklers dramatically reduces the smoke, heat and flames that are produced in a major fire situation, and are able to extinguish or control many fires that would otherwise be difficult to handle.<\/p>\n<p>Correctly designed and installed sprinklers can save you as much as 50-60% of the average property loss from a fire, especially when utilized in industrial buildings or commercial property such as apartment buildings and hotels. This highly-reliable form of fire protection has been around since the turn of the century, but fire sprinklers are not completely flawless. A loss of electrical power and other situations can cause them to not trigger as needed &#8212; which is where the importance of having a backup sprinkler comes in.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Battery Back-ups<\/h2>\n<p>One of the most common forms of fire sprinkler back-ups is to have a battery available in case the electricity is unavailable to a particular part of your building. It\u2019s not unexpected to have fire eat through electrical cables, causing outages to the very sprinkler system that should be protecting your building. When you have a standby battery option, you\u2019re protecting your building and your staff from the danger of a fire that is raging out of control.<\/p>\n<h2>Booster Pump<\/h2>\n<p>As your sprinkler system is starting up, your system will often have a booster pump to help equalize pressure early on. Also known as a jockey pump, this system helps maintain pressure during times of extreme stress, but is not powerful enough to bring the system up to full pressure by itself.<\/p>\n<h2>Backup Sprinkler Heads<\/h2>\n<p>Keeping additional sprinkler heads on hand is extremely important. Each sprinkler head comes equipped with bulbs that are set to break at specific temperatures &#8212; which is what triggers them to become operational. While unusual, sprinkler heads can be triggered accidentally, and if you don\u2019t have adequate additional sprinkler heads on hand you may be leaving your building without the fire protection that you need. Replacing worn or outdated sprinkler heads is something that your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aaafireprotection.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fire protection partner<\/a> can review on a regular basis as part of your ongoing maintenance strategy.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping your fire protection system in tip-top shape is critically important, as it can not only reduce the chance of injury in a fire but also provide you with quick notifications that you have a problem.
