Installations

We design and install fire protection systems to provide the proper protection for your building or residence. Our technicians and engineers receive continual education to ensure your project is completed safely and on schedule.

We are your trusted resource for the full array of fire protection systems.

Wet Sprinkler
Systems

This type of system is water-filled and only the sprinkler closest to the heat source activates. Wet sprinkler systems are typically installed in commercial businesses, offices, schools, warehouses, and residences.

Anti-Freeze
Systems

Separate from the rest of the sprinkler system, these loops are filled with an approved anti-freeze solution to protect areas that are prone to freezing. Anti-freeze systems are typically installed in cold applications where a dry valve is not cost-effective, such as an exterior trash compactor.

Nitrogen Systems

Dry and Pre-Action Systems that use nitrogen generators to fill the sprinkler system with 98% nitrogen. This minimizes moisture, helps reduce corrosion, and extends the longevity of the system.

Pre-Action Sprinkler Systems

Operating faster than dry systems, once a fire is detected, the pre-action valve opens which allows water to flow into the sprinkler pipes. At this point, the sprinkler system is now a wet pipe sprinkler system. Each fire sprinkler is activated individually to release water onto the affected area. Pre-action sprinkler systems are typically installed in data centers and blast freezers.

Dry Sprinkler Systems

Dry Sprinkler Systems are used in colder conditions, with pipes containing pressurized air. When a sprinkler is activated, the air escapes and the valve opens, allowing water to flow through the system. Dry sprinkler systems are typically installed in unheated areas such as attics, coolers, freezers, and exterior structures.

Fire Pumps

When you need more pressure than your local water system provides, a fire pump installation solves the problem.

Foam Systems

Foam systems are designed to disperse a pre-determined amount of foam to extinguish fires that contain flammable liquids such as a paint manufacturer or an airplane hanger.

Water Mist Systems

Installed in areas where water damage would be detrimental to contents, such as data centers, Water Mist systems use less water than standard sprinkler systems but are considered a higher-end system.

Clean Agent
Systems

These systems are installed in unoccupied computer rooms, telephone rooms, and electrical rooms. Fires are extinguished by emitting a gas that removes oxygen from the room.

Deluge Sprinkler Systems

Intended to quickly flood an entire area, sprinklers are open at all times. The deluge valve opens when a detection device is activated. Deluge sprinkler systems are typically installed in airplane hangers, refineries, and industrial applications.

Explosion Detection and Suppression

An explosion suppression system consists of explosion detector sensors, piston fire suppressors, and a control panel. Explosion detector sensors respond to the pressure increase within a fraction of a second. The control panel receives the detection signal from the pressure sensors and sends a signal to piston fire suppressors. Suppressant is released into the dust collector and ductwork and quickly suppresses the explosion.
