A high quality fire sprinkler system is a necessary investment for a business of any size. You can save money on your fire sprinkler system by being proactive with maintenance, bundling your services, and installing the appropriate fire protection system.
Be Proactive
The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) requires routine fire sprinkler systems maintenance to stay in compliance with code. Thankfully, by keeping up with inspections, testing and maintenance, you’ll save money in the long term. With regular inspections, you are more likely to catch small, inexpensive issues with your fire sprinkler system before they become big and expensive. Regular maintenance also helps keep your fire sprinkler system functioning properly in the unfortunate event of a fire.
Bundle Services
Rather than hiring multiple service providers to install, inspect, and maintain your fire sprinkler system, it’s ideal to find one service provider that can take care of all aspects of your system. These companies will often offer a discounted rate, as their technicians can provide multiple services in one visit. Another benefit to bundling your fire protection services is that you’ll have comprehensive coverage and only one number to call when issues arise. Going with an all services fire protection company means that the team that designed and installed your system will also maintain and potentially even monitor your system!
Install the Appropriate System
When having a sprinkler system installed, it’s important to choose the appropriate system for your building. There are four different types of fire sprinkler systems: wet, dry, deluge, and preaction. Choosing the incorrect system for your space can be a very costly mistake. For example, a wet system in an unconditioned space can cause pipes to freeze and burst, resulting in immense, costly water damage. On the other end of the spectrum, installing a dry system in a high hazard environment can result in a delayed release of water, resulting in more fire damage than you would see with a deluge system in this situation.
