Automatic Sprinkler for Austin projects

Wet, dry, pre-action, and deluge sprinkler systems — the backbone of water-based fire suppression, engineered to the building's hazard classification and water supply.

Applicable code basis — Texas

Building: No single statewide building code (2021 IBC commonly adopted locally)

Fire: IFC adopted locally

Home-rule municipalities adopt independently; editions vary by city. Design in Austin is coordinated with the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

System types we design

Wet Pipe

Water-filled piping; the most common and reliable system for heated spaces.

Dry Pipe

Air/nitrogen-pressurized piping for unheated or freezing environments.

Pre-Action

Water held back until a separate detection event; protects water-sensitive spaces.

Deluge

Open heads flooding an area simultaneously for high-hazard applications.

ESFR

Early Suppression Fast Response — high-challenge storage protection.
