When you are building a custom home, you can have fire sprinklers installed as part of your security system. Remember that the fire sprinkler is much different than the sprinkler you see in a commercial building, and you can make your home far safer than every other home on the block. As a part of building your custom home, a contractor can completely revamp the design of your new home to account for added security.

Sprinkler Integration into the Security System

Fire alarms are usually tied to security systems, and you are probably paying for a new security system for the home. Your smoke detectors will be linked to the system, but your sprinklers can be linked to the system, as well. You can have total control of your security system, and you can control the fire safety measures that you have installed in the house.

Seamless Sprinkler Installation

Your new fire sprinklers can be installed in your home differently than they are in a commercial building. Fire sprinklers in your home can be recessed into the ceiling until they are deployed. People in your home will never see your fire sprinklers, and you will not have to worry about designing around many unsightly sprinkler heads.

Your plumbing system must power the fire sprinklers, and you need a professional plumber’s help to take care of your sprinkler system. The sprinkler system may never be used, but your system must be ready in the event of an emergency. A plumber can create a system that has ready water pressure if there is a fire.

Complete Control of Your Sprinkler System

You can control your fire sprinkler system remotely without worrying that it will go off if you burn something on the stove. Your sprinkler system can be set to activate under certain conditions. Your sprinklers can be set to go off after the fire alarm has sounded for a certain period of time. Also, you can set your sprinklers to only activate if you do so manually with a mobile app or through the control panel.

Your fire sprinkler system is designed to protect your home in the event of a fire, but it should not drench your home. The sprinklers will not run after the fire has been put out, and you can turn them off manually. These automatic settings help to protect your home without creating a problem caused by the use of too much water on the interior of the house.

A custom fire sprinkler system can change the way you secure your house, but you need to make sure you work with your contractor to get the sprinklers you need. Every system is different, and your contractor can help you install a system that meets your needs.
