Common Questions About Domestic Sprinkler Systems

Homeowners just like you often have many questions about domestic sprinkler systems. In this section, you will find answers to the most common questions and better understand the advantages having a safe, reliable sprinkler system in your home.

Will Sprinklers Ruin The Look Of My Home Décor?

No, modern residential sprinklers do not ruin the look of your home décor. FireLine Health & Safety offers the latest styles for your home, including the very popular concealed sprinkler heads as well as a wide variety of colours to match your home.

How Do I Know The Sprinklers Won't Go Off By Accident?

Residential sprinkler heads are not like smoke detectors that are easily triggered by things like smoke from burnt toast, matches, or candles. Sprinkler heads are triggered by heat, so they will not activate unless flames get to be about one metre high.

Do I Have To Do Complicated Maintenance On My Sprinkler System?

No. Your sprinkler system and heads are entirely maintenance free as long as they are not activated by an actual fire. If that happens you will need to have the sprinkler heads that were triggered replaced by FireLine Health & Safety.

Can I Have Sprinklers Installed In My Older Home?

Yes, absolutely. FireLine Health & Safety can design, install and certify the perfect sprinkler system for your older home. You can then be assured your loved ones are safe and protected.

I'm Afraid That Water Damage Will Be Worse Than Fire Damage

This is definitely not the case. The amount of water that residential sprinklers distribute is much less than comes out of the firefighter's hose.

Also, the sprinkler head closest to the fire is the only one that activates while a fire hose will spray every nook and cranny possible.

Aren't Home Sprinkler Systems Extremely Expensive?

Not when you compare the costs to those from a typical house fire. A house fire can cause tens of thousands of pounds in damage, while installing a sprinkler system typically costs only a few thousand pounds. That is an exceptionally good deal!
