Fire Sprinkler Maintenance & Repair FAQ's
A fire sprinkler system’s lifespan generally ranges between 40 to 50 years, depending on its maintenance and the materials used. Regular inspections, testing, and proper care can extend its life and ensure optimal performance. Components like sprinkler heads may need replacement more frequently, while the overall system might last longer if well-maintained. It is essential to consult with the professionals at Alpha Fire Protection to adhere to local regulations and specific manufacturer’s guidelines for the best care and maintenance practices.
Fire sprinkler system maintenance should be conducted in accordance with local regulations and the guidelines set by the system’s manufacturer. Typically, a general inspection by the building’s owner or designated personnel should be performed on a monthly or quarterly basis to check for visible issues.
A more detailed inspection and testing by a licensed professional are commonly required annually to ensure that all components are functioning correctly. Some parts of the system, such as the alarm valves and control valves, may need more frequent checks.
Five-year and ten-year inspections may also be mandated for certain components, like internal inspections of pipe and testing of some dry, pre-action, and deluge valves. Following a proper maintenance schedule is crucial for the system’s effectiveness and compliance with safety standards.
Maintenance on fire sprinkler systems must be conducted by professionals who are licensed and certified in the jurisdiction where the system is installed such as the professionals at Alpha Fire Protection. We have undergone specialized training and possess the necessary knowledge, experience, and tools to inspect, test, and maintain the system. Outside of qualified and licensed professionals, it is illegal for anyone to tamper with a sprinkler system, even if it’s the fire department.
