  • What is an automatic fire sprinkler system?
    An automatic fire sprinkler system consists of a water supply system (pumps and tank or mains water), a network of pipes (steel, plastic and other alloys) and fire sprinkler heads spaced at regular intervals throughout the protected premises. Fire sprinklers in the past were used only in warehouses, factories, offices and other commercial premises. But in recent years they are regularly installed in family dwellings, care homes, student accommodation, hospitals, libraries and historical premises.
  • Are sprinklers effective?
    When buildings are protected with a properly designed, installed and maintained sprinkler system - over 99% of fires are controlled or extinguished by the sprinkler heads.
  • Do all sprinklers go off if there's a fire?
    Only the sprinkler or sprinklers closest to the fire source operate, they don't all go off at the same time as you may see in films.
  • If I burn my toast, will my sprinklers go off?
    No, this is a common misconception. Sprinkler heads are heat activated, not smoke activated. The operation of your smoke alarms will not activate the sprinkler heads.
  • How often should my sprinkler system be maintained?
    A domestic and residential sprinkler system should have an annual maintenance carried out by a competent persons at least annually. Get in touch today for a free quotation for your maintenance requirements.
  • Building Control have said I require a sprinkler system due to an attic conversion, will l have space for this?
    Yes, sprinkler tanks and pumps come in a variety of sizes in order to fit in tight locations. Get in touch with North Fire Protection to ensure your attic conversions meet the requirements for being granted a building completion certificate.
