A fire sprinkler system is an essential component of a building’s fire protection strategy. It is designed to detect, control, and extinguish fires in their early stages, mitigating potential damage to property and saving lives. Sprinkler systems consist of a network of pipes, sprinkler heads, valves, and a water supply source, all working together to combat fires effectively.

The primary purpose of a fire sprinkler system is to suppress or extinguish fires by discharging water onto the affected area. The system is triggered automatically when the ambient temperature reaches a certain threshold, typically between 135 to 165 degrees Fahrenheit (57 to 74 degrees Celsius), depending on the system design and occupancy type.
