Sprinkler Design and Hydraulic Calculation — frequently asked
- What is a hydraulic calculation in sprinkler design?
- A hydraulic calculation proves that the available water supply can deliver the required pressure and flow to the sprinklers in the most demanding area of the building. It determines pipe sizing and confirms the system will perform in a fire.
- Which sprinkler system types do you design?
- Wet pipe, dry pipe, pre-action, and deluge systems. The right choice depends on whether the space can freeze, how sensitive the contents are to water, and the hazard classification.
- Do your sprinkler designs meet NFPA and Ontario Building Code?
- Yes. Every design is prepared to the applicable NFPA standards, CAN/ULC requirements, the Ontario Building Code, and the local authority having jurisdiction.
