Live Perspective Webinar - Designing Sprinkler Systems for Longevity and Easy Maintenance

Sponsored by: AGF

As a property owner or facility manager, protecting your investment is imperative. Fire sprinkler systems are a key component to that protection. Despite the name, dry pipe fire sprinkler systems often fail due to freezing, improper maintenance or vandalism leaving property and occupants at risk. Wet systems often fail from leaks or blockages caused by corrosion. Building owners and managers are finding that prevention is the cheapest, quickest, and easiest way to avoid system degradation and failure. AGF’s COLLECTanDRAIN auxiliary drains meet code and simplify maintenance to protect dry systems against damage. AGF’s PURGEnVENT air vents release trapped air in wet systems to help prevent corrosion and thus extend system life.

Learning Objectives:

  • Review NFPA 13 code requirements for freeze protection, auxiliary drains, and air vents.
  • Understand common issues with auxiliary drains on dry fire sprinkler systems and corrosion in wet fire sprinkler systems.
  • Learn how to minimize risk and expenses with a proactive approach to dry and wet systems design.
  • Overview of COLLECTanDRAIN products that solve the most common issues property owners and facility managers encounter with dry fire sprinkler systems and PURGEnVENT air vents which meet code and help prevent corrosion.
