Tech Tuesday Description: Fire sprinkler installation has become common in more buildings over time for both property protection and life safety. The track record, overall, has been very positive. This seminar will review fire sprinkler performance from 2019 to 2023 (5 years). It will examine metrics showing effectiveness, such as number of sprinklers activated, confinement of fire spread, and reduction of financial fire loss. The reasons for fire sprinkler ineffectiveness will also be identified so that proactive measures can be taken by contractors to increase sprinkler reliability during installation and ongoing inspection, testing, and maintenance activities.
