Blaze Control Company Information
During the past fifteen years we have spent countless hours
developing comprehensive sprinkler system to protect buildings of all
styles, methods of construction and size. To achieve this we have used
latest plumbing industry standards and high quality, durable materials
along with resources from various authorities and companies involved in
bushfire research. We are trained fire fighters and apply that training
to continually improve our product and help advise our customers on
property protection.
In developing this system our aim was to be able to identify, calculate
and prove all of the variables at the costing stage to eliminate
problems prior to installation. We determine the numbers of sprinklers
required and then calculate water requirements, pipe sizes, system
operating pressures (allowing for friction and head loss) and system
running times. Using these results we can determine the pump
specification. The pump selected will run at approximately 80% capacity
to ensure that it performs efficiently during the extreme temperatures
associated with bushfires. The system consists of a roof or fascia
mounted copper pipeline mounted on insulated brackets with brass
sprinklers and fittings. The pump can be either a petrol or diesel
powered unit, housed in a vented protective metal cover, cooled and
protected by its own sprinkler.
Development of the physical characteristics of the system was
undertaken aiming to provide a system, which performs reliably, at an
affordable price. This has led to the use of specialized equipment to
expedite the installation procedure, and the design and sourcing of
specialized components from various manufacturers.
