If the leak in your fire sprinkler system is due to rusted or burst pipes, some or all of the piping system may need to be replaced. Some corrosion may be exogenous and easy to detect. Worn sprinkler heads will likely need to be replaced.
If your leak was due to external physical damage, the damaged component will be repaired/replaced. If the cause of the leak is corroded piping, part or all of the piping system should be replaced entirely.
If the leak is due to equipment failure, the component in question will most likely need to be replaced/reinstalled by a professional.
Ways to Prevent Fire Sprinkler System Leaks
The easiest way to prevent future leaks in your fire sprinkler system is to work with a fire protection company. The fire protection company will work to ensure that your sprinkler system is regularly maintained in accordance with NFPA 25: Standard for Inspection, Testing and Maintenance of Waterborne Fire Protection Systems. Maintenance to this standard will help prevent future leaks.
