Residential Sprinkler Systems

Fire Protection for Residential Properties

 The regulations regarding fire protection in residential property are far stringent than those for a domestic property and often compulsory due to the increased potential for a fire to occur and the number and vulnerability of the occupants.

 

Legislation is already in place in a number of residential situations where it is now compulsory for new builds to include a fire sprinkler system and it is envisaged this will roll out to all residential accommodation throughout the UK.

 

 

Following a fire which killed a number of its elderly occupants all newly built care homes in Scotland must be protected by a sprinkler system and in England and Wales all new build flats over 30m must have provision for sprinkler protection.

  • Water Re-cycling

    Water usage is an ever growing area for environmental concern and also in an area such as the South West where water rates are very high, cost is a major factor. South West Fire Sprinklers have a range of water harvesting systems which collect and recycle brown or rain water ready for re-use by the sprinkler system.
