Fire sprinkler systems are increasingly being used in residential and domestic properties all over the world. Having a sprinkler system installed in your home is like having a firefighter in your house 24/7 constantly on the lookout for fire starting.


Why not install home or residential fire sprinklers?


In both the United Kingdom and USA the majority of fire deaths and injury occur in the home or place of abode. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), near 80% of all fire deaths each year happen in the domestic enviroment. Clearly, to improve long-term fire safety there must be improvements in domestic fire safety and fire sprinklers have additional documented life safety effectiveness than any other.
A fire can start in any home whether it be new or old, bricks or timber. The National Institute of Standards and Technology in the USA (NIST) study shows that fires at home can become deadly in under 3 minutes. The study shows that fires today burn faster and kill quicker mostly due to the furniture and contents of modern homes being able to burn quicker and more fiercely.

Both newly built and old households contain these more up-to-date furniture and provide little allowance for success for smoke detectors and alarms. There is less time to escape and this only to the need for an effective suppression system like fire sprinklers.

Smoke alarms can provide early warnings and it is highly recommended that every house has a least 1 smoke alarm installed on every level. In order for smoke alarms to be effective occupants must react quick and escape almost immediately. Children, some most senior adults or people with disabilities might have difficulty hearing in addition to waking to smoke alarms and might have difficulty reacting fast and effectively enough to escape safely. Their lives depend on halting the fire in its early growth. Your lives depend on fire sprinklers.
