43
Q

Wet pipe

A

Also called closed head systems .. Water is already waiting in the pipes

44
Q

Dry pipe

A

Air pressure is maintained in the pipes to keep the water out, once a fire alarm goes off the air pressure is reduced to open the water valve

45
Q

Preaction

A

Just like dry pipe, but each head has a thermal fuse so only the necessary heads go off

Q

Deluge

A

The heads are wide open and flood the place essentially
