The selection of a fire suppression system does not depend solely on the size of the building, but rather requires a comprehensive study of the nature of the activity and potential risks. Warehouses differ from factories, and hospitals differ from administrative offices; each requires a protection system that suits the nature of its inherent risks. Common systems include automatic sprinklers, fire extinguishing networks, fire extinguishers, and early warning systems, all chosen according to approved engineering standards.

Factors to consider: Building type. Facility area. Nature of materials present. Number of workers and visitors. Civil defense requirements. Advice:

Conducting an engineering survey before implementation helps design a system that achieves the highest levels of efficiency and reduces future operating and maintenance costs.
