Types of Businesses that Can Benefit from a Dry Fire Suppression System

If you’re in an office or other commercial building, look around and you are likely to see a sprinkler system of some sort. You might assume that in the case of a fire, water will spray down from the ceiling. But, did you know there are actually different types of sprinkler systems? The two most commonly used systems are the wet fire sprinkler and the dry fire sprinkler systems.

What is a dry fire suppression system? We are here to tell you! The experts at Hard Fire are here to provide information about what a dry fire suppression system can do for your Cleveland business as well as what kinds of businesses benefit from installing a dry fire suppression system.

For one, dry systems are deal for use in structures where temperatures will reach freezing. If and when temperatures drop below freezing, the pipes are not in danger of freezing as they are with their wet sprinkler system counterparts.

Fragile equipment and documents all need protection. And that includes insurance policies, business licenses, contracts, etc. Water-based fire suppression systems can damage computers, servers and critical documents. Certain types of businesses require chemical compounds or a dry fire suppression system to prevent damage from water. Business such as data centers, homes of high-tech electronic gadgetry, art galleries and more can all benefit from a dry fire suppression system. This fire suppression system is waterless and has additional benefits over a water-based system. The implementation of a dry fire suppression system allows for the protection of electronic equipment and documents, resulting in less time in recovery from fire.

What is a Fire Suppression System?

Fire Suppression System is an umbrella term that includes products like fire sprinkler systems, gas fire suppressants, and wet & dry chemical agents.   A type of fire suppression system that is becoming increasingly popular today is the gas fire suppressant, also called a Clean Agent Fire Suppressant. Instead of using water, like a traditional fire sprinkler system, a clean agent fire suppressant uses gas to break down a fire at the molecular level. The gas reduces the fire's fuel, reduces its heat, reduces or isolates its oxygen and stops the chain reaction that occurs as a result of the above three steps. This method also leaves behind no residue, creates far less damage and doesn't require the expensive cleanup that a water sprinkler system does.
