Operation of a Sprinkler Head
Sprinkler Head Operation
Residential and Domestic sprinkler systems operate during the initial stages of a fire and are designed to provide time for egress and prevent flashover.
The sprinkler is activated when the heat from the fire raises the temperature of the head to a point where the element will activate and allow water to pass through the fitting. The sprinkler system should be installed in conjunction with smoke alarms which will activate to provide early warning to the occupants.
Our floor had sustained water damage. Our strata contracted Asset Maintenance Australia to rip up our damaged floor, waterproof the concrete base, apply soundproofing and lay a whole new wood floor. How did they do…? Asset Maintenance did a FABULOUS JOB! They not only performed the work within the timeframe alloted (they finished two days early), but our floors are better than they were before. And Asset Maintenance left the apartment spotless! I would recommend Asset Maintenance for any type of trade and repair work. They’re the best!
