Types of Fire Sprinkler Systems & Applications
Different buildings and operations require specific types of fire sprinkler systems based on risk level, occupancy, and environmental conditions. Understanding which system is appropriate is critical for both fire protection performance and code compliance.
Wet Pipe Systems
The most common type, wet systems are filled with pressurized water at all times and activate immediately when a sprinkler head opens. These are typically used in heated buildings such as offices, retail spaces, and residential properties where freezing is not a concern.
Dry Pipe Systems
Dry systems are filled with pressurized air and only release water when activated. They are designed for unheated or cold environments where pipes are at risk of freezing, such as warehouses, parking garages, and exterior structures.
Pre-Action Systems
Pre-action systems require a two-step activation process—typically a detection system must trigger before water enters the pipes. These are used in areas where accidental discharge could cause significant damage, such as data centers, electrical rooms, and archives.
Deluge Systems
Deluge systems release water from all sprinkler heads simultaneously once triggered. These are used in high-hazard environments where rapid fire spread is a concern, such as industrial facilities, chemical storage areas, and fuel handling operations.
Selecting the correct system depends on building use, occupancy classification, and applicable codes such as NFPA standards and the BC Fire Code. We help ensure your system type aligns with your building’s requirements and coordinate certified professionals for proper installation and service.
