Effective fire protection in cold storage occupancies is a multifaceted challenge. It requires a deep understanding on the fire risk posed by the contents you are seeking to protect and the methods you choose to store them. A systems approach - the right valves, gas supply, detection, water delivery, and automatic sprinkler design - are critical elements to assuring successful and effective protection. This program aims to explore each of these areas and provide insight into the decision-making process that will aid you in making the best choice to protect your clients businesses.
