Fire Sprinkler System Layout & Installation

Wet pipe fire sprinkler systems activate when heat triggers the fire sprinkler heads, effectively containing fires to prevent extensive damage until firefighters can extinguish them. Compared to workflow inconvenience, these systems help avoid significant business disruption and loss.

Dry pipe systems are used where it’s too cold for wet pipe systems, as freezing temperatures can cause water in the pipes to freeze, making the system useless. They are typically installed in unheated buildings, parking garages, outdoor canopies near heated buildings, and refrigerated coolers. Instead of water, the pipes in these systems are filled with air or nitrogen gas, and water is only released when a sprinkler head activates.

When a smoke or heat sensor or a manual pull station is triggered, the control panel is alerted. This panel then opens the deluge valve, causing water (or sometimes foam) to flow through the system instantly through open sprinklers or nozzles. This quick-release system is ideal in areas where fires can spread rapidly.

Pre-action sprinkler systems are designed to avoid false activations and protect valuable items in museums or sensitive equipment in data centers from unintended water damage. These systems combine elements of wet and dry systems tailored to their specific purpose. They come in two varieties: single interlock and double interlock, offering different levels of protection.

A foam water sprinkler system releases a mix of water and foam to create a foam spray. This system is typically used in areas with high fire risks, such as places with flammable liquids and airport hangars because it effectively controls challenging fires.

Water spray systems work similarly to deluge systems but are designed with specific spray patterns to cover uniquely shaped hazards or equipment. They often protect three-dimensional objects like oil-filled electrical transformers or turbo-generator bearings. Additionally, these systems can be used on the exterior of tanks that hold flammable liquids or gases, such as hydrogen, to prevent fires.

Water mist systems are designed for specific situations where the main goal is to absorb heat with vapor. They are ideal for areas where avoiding water damage is important or in places with limited water availability.

Once system layout phase is complete, we manage submission to the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for approval and move seamlessly into fabrication and installation.

Unique in the Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas region, our in-house fabrication plant streamlines the transition from submittals to installation, minimizing errors and ensuring impeccable quality control and schedule adherence. 

Our fire sprinkler system installation teams, stationed across Shreveport, Dallas, Diboll and New Iberia, highlights the breadth and depth of our end-to-end service. Led by foremen with an average tenure of 24 years, our installations are a testament to our unwavering commitment to excellence.
