SERVPRO® Provides Fire Sprinkler Water Damage Cleanup
Water damage is often small-scale, from pipe leaks or plumbing issues, but accidental sprinkler discharges are another cause that can cause setbacks for Merrimack businesses. While sprinklers are essential for preventing fire damage spread, water damage from a compromised system or accidental activation can quickly lead to mold and structural damage.
Restoration professionals at SERVPRO can provide water restoration for Merrimack businesses at any time of the day or night. They can respond within hours of a call to inspect damage and offer repair cost estimates. This firm’s availability aims to lower business downtime after a disaster and kick-start repairs after a business suffers damage.
Maintaining a Commercial Sprinkler System
While accidents can happen anytime, there are some tactics that staff and entrepreneurs can use to lower the risk of sprinkler-related water damage:
- Examine gauges, valves, backflow preventers, and alarm switches yearly.
- Inspect the pipes every five years.
- Sprinkler heads require changing at least once every 20 years.
- Areas that experience frequent high temperatures should have high-heat sprinkler heads installed.
For more information on commercial fire sprinkler requirements, check the National Fire Protection Association’s Code 25 for more details on sprinkler system maintenance and safety.
