As you know,
fire is one of the biggest causes of death in our
world today and therefore protecting against it is very important.
Automatic fire sprinklers do not necessarily reduce
the number of calls for fires, but they do reduce the severity of
the fire, thereby reducing danger to firefighters as well as the
complexity of each incident.
The installation of
automatic fire sprinkler systems in the United
States began with commercial buildings in 1874 and the great results
were noted quickly. Controlling the fire with automatic fire
sprinklers before the firefighters' arrival brought down the
severity of the damages radically. Therefore, in 1985, the city of
Scottsdale, Arizona, mandated that all residential areas should also
be equipped with automatic fire sprinkler systems.
The results were greater than
expected: not one single fire-related death occurred in any
sprinklered property. In addition, the fire department credited the
ordinance with actually saving eight lives.
Automatic fire
sprinklers are present everywhere today, and that's how it should
be, so let SprinkSys help you protect against fire. |
