Protect Your Commercial Property Against Sprinkler System Failure

2/5/2021 (Permalink)

As a commercial property owner in West Roxbury, MA when did you last think about it your sprinkler systems? Unfortunately, sprinkler systems often get left off of the yearly maintenance to-do list because they do not malfunction often, but they can. When they do the damage can be significant! The following are steps to be taken regularly to prevent against a sprinkler system disaster;

Maintenance

Plan to periodically check your sprinkler system for obvious issues. It is relatively easy to accidently damage a sprinkler head. A damaged head, bent pipe, rust and even dust build up might not cause immediate system failure, however, over time it may. If you notice anything like that, call your fire suppression system contractor to come and replace the parts. 

Inspect


The National Fire Protection Association sets standards for regular maintenance, inspection, and testing of fire sprinkler systems. Following these regulations keeps your business up-to-code and ensures that your system is ready if it's needed. Completing the main drain test will likely fall under the scope of a whole system inspection, but if for any reason you're concerned that your sprinkler system may not be working properly, you can test it yourself.

SERVPRO of Norwood/West Roxbury is here to help our community when damage strikes their commercial property. Regular maintenance, inspection, and testing of your sprinkler system will keep your business and employees safe. If they do fail call (781) 769-9125 will make it, "Like it never even happened."
