Islip Dry Pipe Fire Sprinklers

 Dry pipe fire sprinklers are designed and engineered to keep all lines and sprinkler heads void of fire extinguishing agents such as water, foam, chemical or gas like carbon dioxide (CO2) until the detectors and sensors trigger an event due to fire conditions present, heat, explosion or fire is detected. In Islip work with experienced fire sprinkler companies familiar with dry pipe systems to install, service or maintain according to safety, building or fire codes.

 When colder temperatures are a factor dry pipe fire sprinklers are often installed to avoid freezing temperatures which may cause wet pipe sprinkler lines to burst or rupture.

 Dry pipe fire sprinklers are used in cold weather climates as the sprinkler pipe is filled with compressed air or nitrogen that is released allowing the dry pipe valve to open filling the overhead pipes with fire extinguishing agents such as water, foam, chemical or gas like carbon dioxide (CO2) and should not freeze as water becomes present in the system with the detection of heat or fire. Antifreeze fire sprinkler systems & fire suppression systems can also used in cold climates as the use of chemical, carbon dioxide (CO2) or gas extinguishing agents may not freeze in cold climates.
