Sprinkler Systems in Commercial Buildings

2/2/2021 (Permalink)

Sprinkler systems in commercial buildings are often installed to help save lives and property when a fire occurs. Water damage does occur when putting out the fire or when systems malfunction. This is when SERVPRO of Conway & Faulkner Counties is here to help. We will come in and inspect the property and dry the structure when a system malfunctions or water damage is caused from the system going off due to a fire.  Fire sprinklers are activated when the mercury liquid filled bulb bursts between 135 and 165 degrees. It is thought by many that they are triggered by smoke, but they are activated by heat. Sprinkler heads commonly fail when the line freezes from cold weather or the head gets hit or pulled by something. We are here to help when you need it most and want to help prevent issues before they arise. It is always a good idea to know where your sprinkler line shut off valves are located if the system ever malfunctions. Give us a call if you have any questions at 501-328-3301.
