An integrated system of underground and overhead piping designed in accordance with fire protection engineering standards. The system has sprinklers which acts as a control device that operates automatically when its heat activated element is heated to its thermal rating or above allowing water to discharge over a specified area.
QUICK FACTS ABOUT AFSS
- Automatic fire sprinklers have been in use in the U.S. since 1874.
- Fire sprinklers are widely recognized as the single most effective method for fighting the spread of fires in their early stages.
- When one fire sprinkler head goes off to fight a fire the entire sprinkler system does NOT activate. Sprinklers react to temperatures in individual rooms.
- The chances of a fire sprinkler accidentally going off are extremely remote.
