Q: Can you install a
Fire Sprinkler System for our business without our having to close?
A: We make every effort to enable you to carry on business as normally
as possible while we're working on your installation or remodel. This occurs with
90% of our
customers in occupied buildings. In certain unusual situations, it's
possible that you may have to partially close for a short time.
However, in such cases, we plan carefully to minimize the inconvenience.

Q: What sort of
guarantee do you give on your work?
A: It depends on the type of job you require. Our normal
guarantee is for one year. This applies to all materials and
workmanship on the Fire Sprinkler systems we install. We outline our
guarantees in initial discussions, so you know from the outset what your
getting. Additionally, at the completion of the project, a formal,
written guarantee is provided.

Q: How much will a Fire Sprinkler System cost, and how
do I get financial "payback" by having one installed?
A: Considering the quiet safety involved in having one, and the proven results
with a Sprinkler System should a fire occur, the initial outlay is quite
low compared to many other options property owners often install in their
buildings. Sprinkler systems can frequently cost less than the
carpeting!--Plus, insurance costs typically drop dramatically when a Fire
Sprinkler System is installed, usually to provide enough savings in
premiums to pay for the system in a few short years. After that, the
savings goes right into your bank account.

Q: Do all the Fire Sprinklers go off and flood the
whole building with water if there is a fire?
A: No. In the event of a fire, normally only the Fire Sprinkler
"head" closest to the source of the fire will activate and discharge water
to extinguish the blaze. Occasionally, a second "head" will also
discharge if the fire is intense enough. Most fires are extinguished
with one or two "heads" discharging. While there will be some water
damage in the immediate area, it will be small compared to the amount of
water used by firemen with hoses if the fire were allowed to grow
unchecked because of a lack of a Fire Sprinkler System. Almost
always by the time firemen arrive at a building equipped with Fire
Sprinklers, the fire had already been put out.
