The property would have long been destroyed before this system activate, that's too much heat and even so the activation is rather too slow for my liking 🥵

@@aintfromrounhere8099it’s a red-bulb sprinkler, so it’s likely the type you’d actually find in a home. orange-bulb sprinklers have a slightly lower activation point, and they’re the other type commonly found in homes iirc.

As a kid I was always scared of them going off and going everywhere especially in hotel bathroom when I was showering 😂. I never knew how they worked until I had lost the fear for the most part.

It looks like the red thing exploded and lets water out

Would it set off loads of sprinklers at once, or just the ones nearest the heat source?
@codymills23936 ай бұрын
Just the ones close enough to the heat source to burst

How does smoking set them off? That was way too much heat. This caused more questions than answers…

Smoking doesn’t set them off only heat. This specific head was rated for industrial garage

@@YourAverageGermanMain That’s a lot of f**king heat… I would hope the sprinklers would go off before it gets that hot. Still confuses me.

Why it was just shooting air

In a properly installed system, there would be a “purge vent” which allows the air to escape when the system is filled with water. The example shown appears to be a homemade setup and therefore, when the pipe was filled with water the air inside had no way to escape.

It looks like most likely a dry system. A dry systems pipes are filled with compressed air, but during dry trips and testing (completed by fire protection companies) water is run into those pipe, with small amounts staying in the pipe even after it is drained down. You can also hear an air compressor turn on in the background towards the end. It kicks on after a certain amount of pressure is lost in the system.
