Fire Sprinkler Repair in Laurel Heights, San Francisco

San Francisco  |  Commercial / Residential

Project Overview

International Fire Inc. recently completed fire sprinkler repair for an apartment / multi-unit residential property in Laurel Heights, San Francisco. During the property's scheduled 5-year fire sprinkler testing, one sprinkler head was found to require replacement because paint had been applied to the sprinkler head.

The Problem

During scheduled 5-year fire sprinkler testing at an apartment / multi-unit residential property in Laurel Heights, San Francisco, one fire sprinkler head was found with paint on it. Paint on a sprinkler head can affect proper operation, so the affected sprinkler head required replacement before the fire sprinkler system could successfully complete the testing process.

Our Solution

International Fire Inc. replaced the affected sprinkler head and completed the required fire sprinkler repair. After the repair, the fire sprinkler system passed the 5-year test. Property owners, maintenance teams, and painting contractors should avoid painting sprinkler heads. During painting projects, sprinkler heads should be temporarily protected from paint and overspray and fully uncovered after the painting work is complete.
