Fire Sprinkler Design, Installation & Service in Saranac Lake, NY
Clinton County and the Adirondack Mountains in Northern New York are filled with beautiful scenery. The area is also full of historic buildings, often with outdated electricity. Faulty electricity can be a major fire hazard, not to mention buildings located close to wooded areas that are especially prone to fires.
Saranac Lake’s remote location within the Adirondack Park also means fire departments may face longer response times than in more densely populated areas, making a properly designed and maintained fire sprinkler system even more critical for protecting lives and property before help can arrive.

Contact UsFire Pumps and Backflow Preventers
Fire pumps are often installed in structures with high water pressure needs, such as high-rise buildings. Fire pumps support your sprinkler system, ensuring there is enough pressure to carry water where it needs to go. At Firetech Sprinkler Corp., we offer top-quality fire pump services, including installation, maintenance, and inspections.
Backflow preventers help keep fire suppression systems safe and prevent contamination of municipal water supplies. It is often required to have a backflow preventer installed on an automatic fire sprinkler system to help keep public water clean and safe. We offer installation, inspection, testing, and maintenance for backflow systems in Saranac Lake.

Frozen pipes can crack and compromise your entire system right when you need it most.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Causes Fire Sprinklers to Activate?
Sprinkler systems are activated by heat, not smoke. If the temperature around the sprinkler head reaches around 155ºF, the system will activate.
When Are Fire Sprinklers Required in Commercial Buildings?
Typically, sprinkler systems are required in commercial buildings over 5,000 square feet. You will need a sprinkler system if you’re building a new property over that size or completing a renovation/expansion that will bring your building beyond that threshold.
Can older or historic buildings in Saranac Lake be fitted with fire sprinklers?
Yes. Older and historic buildings can typically be retrofitted with fire sprinkler systems, though the process often requires additional planning around existing electrical, plumbing, and structural conditions. Firetech Sprinkler Corp. has experience working with the historic buildings common throughout the Adirondack region.
How does cold weather affect fire sprinkler systems in Saranac Lake?
Extended freezing temperatures can cause water in sprinkler pipes to freeze, expand, and crack, particularly in unheated buildings or seasonal properties. Proper winterization and system design help prevent this kind of damage throughout the Adirondack region’s long winters.
