There is no telling when a fire might break out. If this event should occur, it is best to make sure your building is equipped with fire sprinklers and suppression systems. Fire protection products such as this one ensure that in the event of a fire, safety safeguards are in place to contain the fire and prevent it from spreading. Have you had your fire sprinklers and suppression systems inspected lately?
Inspection of fire sprinklers and suppression systems
The intervals at which fire sprinklers and suppression systems need to be inspected depend on the type of inspection required. Here is the recommended timing of fire sprinkler inspections:
- Check sprinkler system gauges weekly, while monthly checks are recommended for wet pipe gauges.
- Approximately every three months, a more extensive inspection is conducted that checks the water flow and valve alarm devices, control valves, and signal devices.
- Inspections should be performed annually on all pipework, fittings, signage, bracing, and individual sprinklers.
- Internal pipework of sprinkler systems should be visually inspected every five years.
With these guidelines in place, you can rest easy knowing your fire sprinkler and suppression system is ready to go when needed.
