A fire pump pressurizes water to the automatic sprinkler systems, standpipes, foam systems, hydrants, and other water-based fire suppression systems.
A fire pump is a part of a fire sprinkler system’s water supply and is typically powered by electric or diesel fuel. The pump provides water flow at a higher pressure to the sprinkler system risers and hose standpipes. When the pressure in the fire sprinkler system drops below a threshold, the fire pump starts automatically. This happens when one or more fire sprinklers are exposed to heat above their designed temperature, opens, releases water, and thus experiences a drop in pressure in the system.
Summit Companies installs, inspects, tests and maintains your fire pumps to keep them in working order.
Fire water tanks supply water to sprinkler systems and provide a source of water for fire-fighting.

This early warning smoke detection system uses air sampling on a molecular level to detect and alert occupants when smoke is present.
Air sampling smoke detectors are capable of detecting a smoke at its earliest stage. These systems actively pull air through a piping network to its detection chamber where it can detect the presence of particles that are created in the very early stages of combustion, even before smoke is visible.
Air sampling smoke detectors are critical for telecommunications facilities, server rooms, financial data centers, utilities, clean rooms and more where business continuity is a priority. Other applications for air sampling smoke detection include areas with unique architectural features, including atriums, where the access and maintenance of traditional spot-type smoke detectors would be problematic.

The fire alarm control panel receives information from detectors, control equipment, and informs the Fire Department.
The fire alarm control panel is the controlling unit of a fire alarm system. It receives information from devices designed to detect and report fires, monitors the operational integrity of the system, and provides for automatic control of equipment. In addition to notifying building occupants of fire and related emergencies via audio and visual alarms, the fire alarm control panel will also notify emergency services and help to facilitate safe evacuation and emergency response during a fire.
The fire alarm control panel is a critical component to your fire protection system.
This device initiates a fire alarm condition when activated.
A manual fire alarm pull station is a manually activated component of a fire alarm system. You can typically identify them by a red box mounted on a wall. While they are commonplace in commercial and multi-family residential buildings, they are a necessary component for buildings in order to comply with fire codes and regulations, including in buildings with automatic fire detection and alarm systems. Because manual fire alarm pull stations require manual activation, they are considered a failsafe if the automatic systems should malfunction.
Summit Companies will help to ensure you are meeting all code requirements for your building with the correct design, installation, inspections and maintenance required for manual fire alarm pull stations.
Detects heat along the length of a sensor cable and alerts a control panel to activate alarms or suppression systems.
Linear heat detectors use a wire or cable instead of a spot-type device to detect heat from fire. These detectors detect heat and not smoke and are designed for use in a wide variety of indoor and outdoor applications. Some types of linear heat detectors are particularly suited for areas where installation or maintenance access is in a physically demanding or hazardous area, or when an application requires fire detection within close proximity. These type of detection devices are ideal in areas where other means of detection could be damaged or inefficient.
