Fire safety is an important consideration for any business and the use of a water spray system fire protection can be a viable solution to reduce the chances of property damage and harm to people in the event of a fire. But what is the official definition of this type of fire protection system? Water spray systems are automated sprinkler-type systems used to control and suppress fires. These systems create a fog-like mist that, when coupled with building construction features, help contain a fire within a specific area by blocking off air flow. This helps to minimize and prevent property damage, as well as injuries or deaths incurred due to smoke inhalation or flame exposure.
