Maribel Hernandez Mc Call Fire Sept. 1,2016 Deluge Fire System A deluge sprinkler fire system is designed for rapid fire extinguishment in places of high hazard such as chemical storage and processing facilities, power plants, aircraft hangars, etc. All these places have one thing in common, they all posses the power to spread fire very rapidly. This makes the deluge fire system perfect for these facilities of high hazard. With this fire systems ability to smother any fire rapidly and effectively

aids to safeguard effective fire control, extinguishment, prevention, or exposure defense through necessities for the scheme, installation, and system acceptance testing of water spray fixed systems for fire protection. Klaus (2013) also mentions that NFPA 750 protects life and property from fire through the standardization of strategy, installation, preservation, and challenging necessities for water mist fire suppression systems. The mist fire suppression system procedure is a multiplicity of

Fire Protection needs Protection of the Law In 1864 Major Stewart Harrison, an English Engineer, gave to the world the first Automatic Sprinkler Head, his design was also in fact superior to many that followed it.

apartment building dwelling units that are sprinklered per NFPA 13, and where furdown ceilings or lintels create sprinkler spray obstructions to a shower stall or bathtub, is it the intent of code to require additional sprinklers in the bathroom above a shower or bathtub if the physical space does not exist to position sprinklers to avoid obstructions? We are installing residential sprinklers at an apartment dwelling unit bathroom that has a 13.125 in. furdown ceiling above the shower stall, and a decorative

This is how our idea is going to work: Next to the smokestack, their will be something known as the Zmoke-box. Now this box, has the magnificent Zmoke-pods. These pods have the Nobel chemicals inside which are. On top of the Zmoke-box, there
