When it comes to fire safety, every second counts — and your sprinkler system parts must work flawlessly in unison to suppress fire before it spreads. Whether you’re managing a commercial facility, industrial site, or warehouse, having access to high-quality sprinkler system parts is essential to keeping your fire suppression system compliant, responsive, and effective.

We support businesses in maintaining fire suppression systems that meet the strictest safety standards — because when it comes to fire, you can’t afford second best.
Key Sprinkler System Parts Explained
A fire sprinkler system is made up of several interconnected components that detect heat and discharge water in a controlled pattern. Each part plays a crucial role in the overall performance of the system:
Sprinkler heads – The end-point nozzles that release water when heat activates the internal element.
Pipes and fittings – Carry water throughout the building from the main water source to each sprinkler head.
Control valves – Regulate the flow of water into the system and allow for maintenance or emergency shutdown.
Alarm valves – Trigger alarms when water flows, signalling a fire has been detected.
Pressure gauges – Monitor water pressure to ensure it remains within safe and effective limits.
Flow switches – Detect movement of water in the pipes, initiating alarms or additional suppression responses.
Test and drain valves – Used during regular system inspections to ensure performance and compliance.
Together, these parts ensure that the system can detect heat quickly, activate efficiently, and deliver water effectively to suppress or extinguish fires.
The Importance of Using Certified Sprinkler System Parts
In Australia, fire suppression systems — including sprinklers — must meet the standards set by the National Construction Code (NCC) and AS 2118.1 for automatic fire sprinkler systems. Using untested or inferior components not only risks system failure but can also void insurance or breach compliance regulations.
At Flexco, all of our sprinkler system parts are selected for their performance, durability, and adherence to Australian safety standards. Whether you’re replacing components after a fire event or upgrading an older system, we help you get the parts you need — fast.
