Sprinkler Systems

Which type of fire sprinkler system is used where damage from water to the contents or finishes of a building is a significant concern:

A. wet-pipe
B. dry-pipe
C. pre-action
D. deluge




In a preaction system, water is allowed to flow into the system and an early alarm is activated prior to opening any sprinkler heads, providing an opportunity to extinguish the fire before damage from water can occur.
