One Fire Sprinkler
Miles Morris
Providing Fire Sprinklers Construction Services at ACCO Engineered Systems
One fire sprinkler is usually enough to control a fire. In 77% of the structure fires where sprinklers operated, only one operated. In 97% five or fewer operated. In 99% 10 or fewer operated.
The most common reason that fire sprinklers failed to operate was the system being shut off at some point before the fire.
ACCO Provides Fire Sprinkler System Installation along with NFPA 25 Inspection services. Let me know if you would like more information.

1 年Very interesting, I’d be curious to see a breakdown of occupancies by sprinkler activations in percentages. To see how each specific occupancy controlled the fire in relation to how many sprinklers activated.
