Well, I was sitting around the theatre the other day and for the first time in 4 years realized that we have no sprinklers in our auditorium. I assumed this was done because the mass amounts of damages that could be done by water more then fire. This normal?
As far as fire suppression systems go in our facility, we have a fire curtain which falls in any circumstance, power out, fire alarm, smoke detector, etc. A roof vent that opens only when a stage smoke detector is set off. And I am assuming this is for fire, but there is a large pipe comming down from the ceiling with a hand wheel knob thing, (forgot name) and a water outlet pointing toward the stage opening. Assumed it was for firefighters.
The fire mashal is always in and out since it is a highschool, hes never mentioned anything. So I let it go.
Normal or no? : )
