You may already know a lot about your Jacksonville waterless fire suppression system, but there’s no way you know as much as we do. There’s nothing we love more than talking about and working with Fire & Life Safety solutions, so let’s get started.
Fire sprinklers save lives and property. In a 2017 study, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) found that the death rate per 1,000 fires was 87% lower in properties that were outfitted with automatic extinguishing systems than those with none. Additionally, sprinkler systems were successful in controlling the fire in 96% of the incidents in which they were activated.
While this obviously makes the case for a fire suppression system (not to mention the fact that they are required by state and local building codes), what happens when your property can’t utilize a traditional sprinkler system? In this blog, we’ll share our knowledge of a Jacksonville waterless fire suppression system – and by the end, you’ll have some fun facts to impress your friends with. If your friends aren’t into Fire & Life Safety facts, you probably need better friends.
3 Things You Haven’t Heard About A Jacksonville Waterless Fire Suppression System
Waterless fire protection is necessary in more locations than server rooms
You’ve probably heard of waterless fire suppression systems, like clean agent systems, being utilized in server rooms and other areas that house high-value assets, but a Jacksonville waterless fire suppression system is needed for a variety of different property types.
Since a waterless system diffuses gas or foam instead of water, you can often find one in:
- Airport hangars
- Chemical processes
- Flammable liquid storage areas
- Boat and marine applications
- Fuel stations
- Switchgear rooms
- Cellular sites
- Some factories
- Certain medical facilities
- And any other property that houses highly combustible equipment
