FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEM CORROSION PREVENTION

An ounce of prevention…

Our industry is experiencing issues with the corrosion of piping at an unprecedented rate. One of the biggest challenges is the lack of awareness that there may even be a problem with your system until it is too late.

Fire protection systems do require some upkeep and maintenance to make sure they are constantly ready and able to put out a fire. The team at INFINITY can help test your system and identify early signs of problems before they cause serious – and expensive – failures.

One of the most common conditions that can keep a fire protection system from functioning properly is system corrosion. INFINITY can help prevent corrosion of your sprinkler system and maximize the life of your system.

WHAT IS CORROSION

Corrosion within a sprinkler system most frequently occurs when microbes attack the metal pipes and mechanical components of the system. Sometimes, the corrosion can affect parts of the sprinkler system that you do not usually see, and it can keep the system from working as well as it should. The experts at INFINITY can provide corrosion prevention services by testing water within your sprinkler system or install monitoring components to help ensure that if you ever need it, your sprinkler system will function properly.

Not all buildings across the country have the same corrosion concerns because of different microbe contents in the water. However, you can be confident that with the help of the INFINITY experts and their corrosion prevention services, your sprinkler will work as effectively as possible in an event of a fire. Their team can also help identify modern system upgrades that can help deter corrosion problems, including biocide treatment, nitrogen-filled pipes or pipe coatings that can keep microbes at bay.

If you suspect corrosion is affecting the sprinkler system in your building or just want to have your system tested to give you peace of mind that your sprinkler system is functioning properly.
