Fire Protection System Design in Northern CA
At Foothill Fire Protection, our dedicated design department specializes in creating custom fire protection solutions for a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
Designing an effective fire protection system that meets the building’s specific requirements and all local codes requires extensive knowledge and years of professional experience.
No matter what your needs are, our team will use their expertise to ensure your fire protection system works perfectly and keeps your property and everyone and everything within it safe.
Whether it’s a fire alarm, fire sprinkler, or fire suppression system, we have what it takes to design and install a system that works just like you need it to.
Fire Alarm System Design
When designing fire alarm systems, we focus on factors including the layout of the building, the building’s occupancy type, and local code requirements. This allows us to determine the optimal design in terms of whether a manual, automatic, or integrated system is best.
After considering all the necessary factors and information, we’ll determine the best location for all the alarms to ensure the building is fully covered.
Two of the most critical aspects of a fire alarm system are that it provides early detection in the event of a fire and that it quickly and effectively notifies occupants.
It’s also crucial that you choose an experienced design company to ensure your system is fully compliant with NFPA standards and conforms with local fire safety regulations.
Fire Sprinkler System Design
We can design whatever type of fire sprinkler system you need, from wet to dry, pre-action to deluge. After performing a full evaluation and taking into account things like building size, occupancy, fire hazard classification, and water supply, we’ll accurately determine which option best meets your building’s requirements.
We perform full hydraulic calculations to ensure the system has the correct water flow requirements to work properly and will quickly and effectively put out any fires.
Our team will also design a system that integrates with the building’s infrastructure in terms of water supply, piping, and any zoning requirements. When you choose us, you can trust we’ll design a system that works reliably and complies with local and NFPA 13 national codes.
Fire Suppression System Design
We specialize in designing various types of fire suppression systems, including clean agent systems, CO2 systems, and foam systems. We base the design on the building’s risk assessment and the specific type of hazard in certain parts of the building, such as a commercial kitchen, industrial area, or server room.
This allows us to determine which suppression agent and discharge nozzles are best for limiting the system’s environmental impact and ensuring the system works effectively.
We also focus on enclosure integrity to ensure any fire that starts remains fully contained and can’t spread to other parts of the building. Our team is highly experienced in designing any type of full fire suppression system that also integrates things like sprinklers and alarms.
Key Considerations in Fire Protection System Design
Our design process starts by assessing local and state building codes, fire codes, and all other applicable regulations. From there, we move on to conducting a hazard analysis and fire risk assessment to determine what type of system and what options the building needs.
Throughout the design process, we’ll work to develop a system that integrates and is compatible with the building’s existing infrastructure.
Our team always creates a fully customized design based on the building’s type and occupancy and what specific fire risks are present. We also specialize in fire system testing and inspections, upgrades, and maintenance to ensure continued compliance and long-term safety.
