DELUGE FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS
Advanced deluge fire suppression technology for high-risk industrial applications. Protecting lives and assets across the Philippines with rapid response fire protection systems.
Deluge System Operation Diagram
What is a Deluge Fire Protection System?
A deluge fire protection system is a water-based fire suppression system that uses open sprinkler heads connected to a piping system. Unlike traditional sprinkler systems, all sprinkler heads are open and the system is controlled by a deluge valve that releases water to all sprinkler heads simultaneously when activated.
Key Characteristics
Open Sprinkler Heads
All sprinkler heads are permanently open, allowing immediate water discharge when the system activates.
Simultaneous Activation
Water is discharged from all sprinkler heads at once, providing complete area coverage.
High-Volume Discharge
Delivers large volumes of water quickly to suppress fires in high-hazard areas.
Deluge Valve Control
Controlled by a deluge valve that can be activated by fire detection systems or manually.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about deluge fire protection systems
What is a Deluge Fire Protection System?
A deluge system is a water-based fire suppression system that uses open sprinkler heads connected to a piping system. When activated, water flows through all sprinkler heads simultaneously, providing immediate and complete area coverage for high-hazard applications.
How much does a Deluge System cost in the Philippines?
Deluge system costs vary based on area coverage, hazard type, and complexity. Basic systems start from ₱500,000 for small areas, while large industrial installations can range from ₱2-10 million. Contact AA2000 for a detailed quote based on your specific requirements.
Is Deluge System compliant with Philippine regulations?
Yes, AA2000 designs and installs deluge systems in full compliance with Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) requirements, NFPA standards, and local building codes. All installations include proper documentation and BFP approval coordination.
When should I choose a deluge system over regular sprinklers?
Deluge systems are ideal for high-hazard areas where rapid fire spread is expected, such as flammable liquid storage, aircraft hangars, or chemical processing areas. They provide immediate total coverage unlike traditional sprinklers that activate individually.
How often does a deluge system need maintenance?
Regular maintenance includes weekly visual inspections, monthly functional tests, quarterly deluge valve trip tests, and annual full system testing. AA2000 provides comprehensive maintenance programs to ensure system reliability.
Do you provide 24/7 emergency support?
Yes, AA2000 provides round-the-clock emergency support throughout the Philippines. Our emergency hotline (0917 158 5060) and email ([email protected]) are available 24/7 for urgent system issues or repairs.
