Deluge Fire Sprinkler Systems in Seattle, WA
The arrangement of deluge sprinkler system piping is similar to a wet or dry pipe system with two major differences:
A. Standard sprinklers are used, but they are all open. The activating elements have been removed so that when the control valve is opened water will flow from all of the sprinklers simultaneously and deluge the area with water.
B. The deluge valve is normally closed. The valve is opened by the activation of a separate fire detection system.
A deluge sprinkler system is used where large quantities of water are needed quickly to control a fast-developing fire. Deluge valves can be electrically, pneumatically, or hydraulically operated.
Our services include the installation, repair, inspection, and maintenance of deluge fire sprinkler systems in the Seattle, Washington area.
