When an automatic fire sprinkler system is properly installed, maintained, inspected, and supervised, it is considered one of the most effective methods of providing life safety, controlling damage to a structure, and controlling damage to building contents in the event of a fire. In most cases, an automatic sprinkler system will activate and control a fire before hazardous flames and toxic gasses cause loss of life or destroy a structure. Although an automatic sprinkler system may extinguish a fire, its primary purpose is to contain the spread of fire until firefighting operations are implemented.
