Product Description

The purpose of this new text is to familiarize the fire service and others with the components, design, maintenance, operation, testing, and inspection of common fire protection, detection, and suppression systems. This new edition reflects the most current equipment, technology, and practices. This new edition (previously titled Fire Detection and Suppression Systems, Fourth Edition) is a resource for emergency services personnel who respond to incidents in protected premises. This manual is also a valuable resource for fire inspectors and for people who design, maintain, and inspect fire protection systems. What is an automatic fire sprinkler system and how does it operate? Is a heat detector different than a smoke detector? Is that stand pipe installed properly? Is the hood system in this café charged with the right dry chemical? When the fire alarm system alerts people in the building to a fire does the system automatically call the fire department? Is a high rise building required to have a smoke control system? What type of fire pump is in this building? This new text is a resource to learn about these and other fire detection and suppression systems. Systems like these provide fire protection, detection, and suppression. They are installed in buildings that house many different occupancies that impact the design and operation of the systems. These systems are designed to detect the presence of fire, alert occupants and emergency responders to the condition, and to suppress or extinguish the fire. Components of these systems are constantly changing and improving with advances in technology. This textbook is designed to meet the course objectives, outcomes, and outline for the associate's level core curriculum course, Fire Protection Systems, as established by the Fire and Emergency Services Higher Education (FESHE) initiative of the United States Fire Administration (USFA).
