Drexan’s Pipe Freeze and Fire Sprinkler Protection

Drexan has extensive experience in engineering solutions for commercial applications ensuring pipes and sprinkler systems do not freeze in cold temperatures. When water inside a pipe freezes, it expands, increasing pressure and potentially causing pipe bursts, flooding, and costly repairs. This is especially critical in commercial and residential settings where water supply, heating, or fire protection systems must remain operational.
