[QUOTE="Fyrtwuck, post: 2371105, member: 23"] Early detection is always a plus. Smoke inhalation kills more victims than the fire. Residential systems are an advantage especially for the more rural areas where there are no water lines or hydrants. Tie the system together with a detection and alarm system and you can be notified of trouble and activation. If you are concerned about water damage, the system can be designed with outside shut off. Those of you that live in these areas are aware of the insurance rates. The first questions that are asked are "How far away is the closest fire station? Are they paid or volunteer? Are there any hydrants in your area". It doesn't take much heat to cause damage. Normal body temperature. 98.6F Boil water. 212F Burn paper. 451F. Detection and early suppression are high priority.
