A house fire breaking out is a nightmare shared by all homeowners. Few things tingle the spine more than thinking about your home in flames.
As the old adage goes, “it’s better to be safe than sorry.” This is especially true when formulating a fire prevention and suppression plan. Here are three reasons why homeowners should consider installing a fire sprinkler system in their home:
- Tragically, the overwhelming majority of fire deaths occur in homes, as over 3,000 Americans lose their life each year in a house fire. A fire sprinkler system can help you prevent a tragedy and keep you, your family and your pets, safe.
- They provide a rapid response. Rather than waiting for a fire truck to arrive or looking around for a fire extinguisher, you know your system is ready to work the second you need a fire suppressed.
- In the event a fire breaks out in your home, having a fire sprinkler system in place will actually save you money. Think of it this way: the majority of fires will be put out by one sprinkler head, and the damage caused by the water from said sprinkler is often far less than it would be if the fire department puts it out. In addition, a quick response time could save some of your belongings, preventing you from having to buy replacements that were damaged in a fire.
Ultimately, the best part of having a fire sprinkler system in your home is the peace of mind it provides you when you lay your head on the pillow at night. To learn more about why you should consider a fire sprinkler system for your home, contact Beach Lake Sprinkler.
