Frequently Asked Questions

How is Deluge System different from a standard sprinkler system?

While both are water-based, the design, discharge pattern, pressure and coverage area of Deluge System are calculated for its specific hazard class and application, which can differ significantly from a standard light-hazard sprinkler layout.

Can Deluge System be installed in an existing building?

Yes, in most cases. It requires a site survey to confirm water supply, pressure, pump capacity and pipe routing, after which the system can be designed and retrofitted with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

What standards govern the design of Deluge System in India?

Design is typically carried out in line with National Building Code (NBC) provisions and relevant TAC or NFPA guidelines depending on the occupancy and insurance requirements of the project.
