Residential Sprinkler Myth and Facts
The Arguments Against Sprinklers
MYTH:"Sprinklers are unsightly."
BUT IN FACT: All residential sprinklers come in colors to match ceiling and wall colors and can be recessed or partially recessed.
MYTH:"Sprinklers heads will leak."
BUT IN FACT: Sprinkler systems are under the same pressure as the plumbing system but are tested at 2-3 times higher pressure during installation.
MYTH:"If one sprinkler head goes off, they all go off. Then, you've really got a mess!"
BUT IN FACT: That only happens in the movies!Sprinkler heads are designed to react to temperatures in each room individually. Normally, only the sprinkler over the fire will activate. Data show that in residential scenarios, usually one sprinkler will control a developing fire; in commercial buildings, as few as three sprinklers will do the job.
