Mezzanine Sprinkler Systems

Sprinkler Systems can be added to an exisiting or new mezzanine floor at any time. In many instances we have to provide a sprinkler system to co-inside with building regulations approval. On other occasions our clients request a sprinkler system to protect valuable materials and products or to offer fire protection from flammable substances and protect staff working in that area or above.

A standard fire sprinkler system disperses water at a rate of 75 - 150 litres a minute, an Early Suppresion Fast Responce (ESFR) sprinkler system discharges over 400 litres a minute. A sprinkler system takes between one and four minutes to kick in, from the point of ambient room temperate change. There are many types of sprinker system the most suitable mezzanine sprinklers we have installed are 'wet pipe systems and 'dry pipe systems';

Wet Pipe Systems

When fitted these sprinkler systems constantly hold water under pressure in the system piping. They are considered the most reliable and most often used due to the only operating component being the automatic sprinklers and automatic alarm check valve.

Dry Pipe Systems

These Sprinkler systems are ideal in coldstores and areas where there is a cold ambient temperature when still water would freeze inside the pipping. Instead the water is held back by pressurised air. When the automatic sprinkler is exposed to temperates above the set norm, the air is expeled allowing the water to follow in the pipe. This creates a slight delay as water will not disperes until all the air has passed.

Each system has it's own benifits and is suitable for different situations. We can also incorporate 'pre - action systems' for delicate areas or foam water sprinkler systems.
