In unheated spaces—like garages, loading docks, attics, and warehouses—dry sprinkler systems are essential for fire protection during freezing conditions. Summer is the best time to inspect and service these systems because it allows you to identify and resolve issues without interrupting operations during colder months. Proactive maintenance now ensures your system is ready when temperatures drop.
If you’re a facility manager or contractor in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, or Maryland, now is the time to schedule your dry system inspection before colder months catch you unprepared.
Why Summer Is the Smart Time to Inspect Dry Systems
☀️ Off-season repairs = no disruption to winter operations
💨 Air compressors and valves can degrade unnoticed
⚠️ Corrosion and moisture inside dry pipes can build up
📋 NFPA 25 and local jurisdictions require annual inspection/testing
