Description
Situated in the bustling Manchester city centre, Ducie Street is a newly built residential block catering to the demand for modern, safe urban living. To uphold high safety standards, the client selected Base to design and install the sprinkler system and essential water supplies in accordance with the latest regulations. Following a successful tender, Base committed to delivering a solution that strictly aligns with BS 9251:2021, the British Standard for fire sprinkler systems in residential and domestic buildings. This standard ensures that the system offers reliable, efficient protection for residents, reinforcing safety measures throughout the property.
The water supply infrastructure at Ducie Street was tailored to meet the stringent requirements of BS 9251:2021, emphasising system reliability. The setup includes twin electric pumps for continuous, dependable pressure, and a split 30m³ water tank to secure ample water reserves for system activation. This configuration not only complies with BS 9251:2021 but also allows the building to maintain consistent performance even during maintenance or in the event of a fault.
Base installed a dedicated sprinkler monitoring system that provides real-time data on the sprinkler system's functionality and water supply status. This advanced monitoring aligns with BS 9251:2021, ensuring prompt alerts and enabling efficient response in case of any system issues. Through a combination of rigorous adherence to standards and strategic infrastructure planning, Base has delivered a comprehensive, fire protection solution for Ducie Street. This case highlights Base’s expertise in creating complete fire safety systems that meet both regulatory demands and the client’s commitment to resident safety.
