Fire Sprinkler: the new partner in firefighting

You might have come across several movies where all the fire nozzle of sprinklers in a workplace went off at once. In real life, fire sprinklers are designed to quickly put out fires while minimizing water damage. Following is how a fire sprinkler works and the reasons why your commercial building should have their fire protection system inspected regularly.

Pressurized Water

It is best to install a fire sprinkler during new construction or remodeling as it takes an entire network of piping to supply water to all the fire sprinkler heads in your workplace. Due to the constant supply of pressurized water via the piping network, fire sprinklers respond quickly to fires. Each sprinkler head is installed along the piping and strategically placed to protect the rooms and hallways in your commercial workplace. Only the sprinkler heads closest to the flames will activate in the event of a fire.

Temperature Sensitivity

It’s important to remember that fire sprinklers go off due to an increase in air temperature indicative of a fire. It is rare for fire sprinklers to accidentally go off, which means you shouldn’t let fear of water damage prevent you from adding complete fire protection to your commercial workplace. Compared to a plumbing leak, a fire sprinkler releases much less water in the event of an accidental discharge.

Once the mechanism in the fire sprinkler head is triggered, only an emergency responder can turn off the water.

Quick Response

As soon as the fire sprinkler system detects an increase in air temperature indicative of a fire, pressurized water is released via the sprinkler head. Often, the automatic sprinkler system is able to suppress (or even put out) the flames before first responders arrive on the scene. Not only does the quick response of the fire sprinkler system minimize property loss, but it also gives more time to evacuate. Fire sprinklers also reduce the amount of smoke and heat a fire produces. 

Keep in mind that fire sprinkler systems should be just one part of a comprehensive fire protection system and should be combined with other measures like a fire alarm system and fire extinguishers.

Some heroes wear Capes…some wear Bunker Gear!

Bunker Gear is the outer shell that maintains the effectiveness of the thermal liner and the moisture barrier. Firefighters depend on turnout systems to protect them from burn injury. Gear cleaning is an inevitable part of everyday life for firefighters, who encounter everything from hydrogen cyanide to benzene and other hazardous materials during a day's work! Now that majorly calls out for a thorough cleaning of their protective clothing as any chemical left behind can cause severe problems.

Let’s have a quick view on the effective washing methods below:-

Machine Washing:

The special fabrics that make up your turnouts contain inherent flame and heat resistance properties, which cannot be washed off or worn out. NEVER use the same machine that you do your home laundry in.

Cleansers:

Many times, in the battle of the containment of the fire, it’s quite natural for a firefighter to catch unusual dirt in their dress. We recommend liquid detergents since they are less likely to leave any residue on the clothing.

Spot Cleaning and Pre-treating:

Pre-cleaners can be used to clean light spots and stains caught while dealing with barreras on protective clothing. Squirt the pre-cleaner onto the soiled area and gently rub the fabric together until a light foam appears on the surface; this foam should be completely rinsed off with cool water prior to washing.

Removing Oil or Tar:

Oil-based soils such as motor oil and tar can be removed with solvents such as "Varsol" prior to washing. The coated material should never be dry cleaned.

Bleach:

One of the most often-asked questions concerns the decontamination of a trajes de bomberos bomberil system (click here to know, what’s that!), especially with chlorine bleach. Under no circumstances should chlorine bleach be used!

In caring for your turnout clothing, you must always remember that it features three-piece layering and multiple components, and you must consider each individual layer and component while deciding how to clean. We do encourage every department to keep their clothing clean and to regularly inspect and repair as needed. Having dirt and other debris clinging to your gear represents a safety hazard and an unconscious invitation to various diseases.

Are you prepared!!! That can be an oil spill…

Oil spills are one of the major disasters recorded till date occurring in a variety of forms and severities. Although nobody wants oil spill incidents, the reality is that they do, that too in large numbers.

From a few gallons leaking out of a small boat or sunken ship to millions of gallons from huge tankers or ruptured pipelines, these spills vary in sizes and types. Apart from the various manmade sources that contribute maximum in oil spill, there are also natural oil seeps that can release thousands of gallons into the ocean.

Oil spills into rivers, bays, and the ocean most often are caused by accidents involving tankers, barges, pipelines, refineries, drilling rigs, and storage facilities.

 Spills can be caused by:

Human follies or people being careless.

Breaking down of equipment.

Natural disasters such as cyclones.

Deliberate acts by terrorists, countries at war,     vandals, or illegal dumpers.

Once the oil has spilled, firefighters may respond to the incident, depending on who's needed. People may use any of the following kinds of tools to clean up spilled oil.

Booms,     which are floating Barrera to oil (for example, a big boom may be placed around a tanker that is leaking oil, to collect the oil).

Skimmers, which are boats that skim (scoop) spilled oil from the water surface.

Sorbents, which are big sponges used to absorb oil.

Chemical dispersants and biological agents, which break down the oil into its chemical constituents.

In situ burning, which is a method of burning freshly spilled oil, usually while it's floating on the water.

Washing oil off beaches with either high-pressure or low-pressure hoses.

Vacuum trucks, which can vacuum spilled oil off of beaches or the water surface.

Shovels and road equipment, which are sometimes used to pick up oil or move oiled beach sand and gravel down to where it can be cleaned by being tumbled around in the waves.

The choice of methods and tools depends on the circumstances of each event along with appropriate bunker gear. Setting up stations where cleaning and rehabilitation of wildlife is one of the ways to deal with it. In some cases, responding is not helpful rather it just adds to the damage from the spill.
