FIRE SPRINKLER SYSTEMS

Fire sprinkler systems use heat-activated sprinkler heads to release water directly onto a fire, slowing its spread and providing time for occupants to evacuate. Working in tandem with fire alarm systems, sprinklers provide a critical first line of defense.

Key Details

Sprinkler Ordinance

In 2018, the City & County of Honolulu adopted Ordinance 19-4, requiring all residential high- rise buildings—10 stories or taller and built before May 1, 1975—to undergo a Fire and Life Safety Evaluation (FLSE). Depending on the results, buildings may be required to retrofit with fire sprinklers or make other life safety upgrades. Full ordinance details are available at fire.honolulu.gov.

Types of Systems

Fire sprinkler systems come in several types, including wet, dry, pre-action, and deluge systems. In Hawai‘i’s residential condominium buildings, wet pipe systems are the most common. These systems keep water pressurized in the pipes, allowing for immediate discharge when a sprinkler head is activated. Due to their reliability, simplicity, and low maintenance requirements, wet systems are ideal for multi-unit buildings
