Sprinkler Systems

Design, project management, and contract administration for cost-effective water-based fire protection systems

Water-based fire protection systems are the most common form of fire suppression overall, and even in many specialized sectors—including industrial and commercial.

How PLC Can Help

We can provide cost-effective designs—including the preparation of specifications and design drawings—for water-based extinguishing systems (and their associated fire detection/actuation systems) that match hazards with the appropriate level of protection.

Our design packages include schematic designs, detailed designs, construction drawings, and submission packages for building permit applications and TSSA approvals

From an operational perspective, we can also help clients with inspection, testing, and maintenance (ITM) of water-based systems and with developing and improving upon their ITM programs.

Additionally, we can prepare tender documents for systems installation, and we’re able to provide project management and contract administration.

Water is a versatile and effective fire suppressant; water-based fire suppression systems come in a wide variety of systems, including (but not limited to):

• Automatic sprinkler systems
• Standpipe and hose systems
• Water supply systems/private fire service mains
• Fire pumps
• Water spray fixed systems
• Foam-water sprinkler systems/foam-water spray systems
• Low, medium, and high-expansion foam systems
• Water mist systems
