Fire Sprinkler Water Damage Restoration & Clean Up

Fire sprinkler systems are a crucial safety feature for homes and offices in Houston, TX, as they can effectively extinguish a raging fire. However, the effectiveness of these systems comes with the potential for water damage. While they may output around 10-25 gallons per minute (GPM), which is significantly less than a fire department hose expelling roughly 100 GPM, the amount of water released can still cause damage.

Fortunately, both home and business sprinkler systems are designed to minimize overall damage. Unlike centralized triggers used in locations like airport hangars or chemical storage facilities, these systems have individual triggers at each sprinkler head. This means that only the sprinkler heads in the immediate vicinity of the fire will activate, localizing the water to a specific room or area. These sprinkler heads are heat-sensitive and activate at temperatures of around 155ºF, effectively extinguishing fires and preventing them from spreading, thereby saving lives and mitigating smoke and soot damage.



However, it's important to be aware that even though these sprinkler systems can quickly put out fires, the resulting water damage should not be underestimated. Within as little as 10 minutes, between 100-250 gallons of water can be expelled to extinguish a fire. If it takes a while for the fire department to arrive, even more water could be released, further contributing to potential water damage. Water damage can begin to occur very rapidly, typically within 24-48 hours after the flooding.
