Some high-rise facilities also feature stairway fire hose connections and dedicated fire pumps to maintain code-compliant water pressure and flow. Every sprinkler system is integrated with the building’s fire alarm panel, instantly triggering a building-wide alarm upon activation. To ensure continuous reliability, all systems comply with NFPA 13 and 25 guidelines and undergo semiannual inspections by NICET-certified technicians.
