What Accidental Fire Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Includes in Bunker
The fire sprinkler contractor inspects the system after accidental fire sprinkler discharge cleanup. Once the area is safe, a Bunker restoration crew removes water and records the affected spaces.
An impact to a sprinkler head, a system fault or another unintended event can release water into a room without a fire. Water may run under doors, enter wall bases and soak ceiling spaces below the discharge. The visible puddle rarely marks every wet material.
A discharged head may leave water over several levels. The fire protection specialist handles the source; the drying crew works through the wet footprint.

- Have authorized personnel stop the sprinkler flow and check system status.
- Avoid operating damp switches or unplugging devices from standing water.
- Photograph the discharge area and spreading water from a safe position.
