Why can't I install fire sprinklers myself?
Seems easy enough mains water already ready in the attic.
A bit of push fit piping from B&Q
Hole in ceiling
one head
= one sprinkler system

How are you going to activate them? If you choose the glass bubble type,
then how often are you going to test them to make sure they'll work when
they need to? They're also not that suitable for smouldering materials,
which, in a residential environment, is not a good thing.

Are you sure there is no other way to stop the water than at the hydrant
point in the street? Your mains supply is not one to be relied upon in an
emergency situation, and that's why an uninterruptible water supply is
needed for this type of installation.

How hot does it get in your house?
