which results in cost savings.

PP-R fusion welding causes bead formation
in pipes, which can lead to reduced flow rate,

built more economically, utilizing lightweight
construction techniques and products. While
cost-effective, this method can lead to a much
faster burn time and greater destruction of

“When a fire occurs,
every sprinkler will go
off and ruin the whole
house.”
Only the fire sprinkler
closest to the fire wall will
activate. Approximately
85% of the time, just one
sprinkler operates.
“Burnt toast could set
them off.”
Sprinkler heads are not
triggered by smoke,
they activate only when
they sense extreme
temperatures between
135°F and 165°F (57°C
and 74°C).
“They’re ugly − they’ll ruin
the look of the house.”
New sprinkler models
can be mounted flush
with walls or ceilings
and concealed behind
decorative coverings.
