Key facts about Fire Sprinklers



  • Fire sprinklers not only warn occupants of a fire, but they also actuate quickly to control or extinguish the fire, even if no one is present
  • The heat of the fire activates each sprinkler head individually. Only the sprinkler heads directly affected by the fire actuate.
  • Sprinklers use much less water than the Fire Service, because they tackle the fire in its earliest stages, therefore minimising fire and water damage to the property and its contents.
  • Rooms protected by sprinklers can often be re occupied within hours, with the remainder of the property being largely unaffected by smoke damage.
