** NO MEDIA COVERAGE – Fire Sprinkler Contractor Reported **

A call was received last Wednesday morning at 4:30 am from Valli Produce at 155 North Avenue in Glendale Heights.  An electrical fire started in a storage room that contained Cardboard and Styrofoam. Three of the four sprinklers within the room activated. The fire was extinguished by the time the Fire Department arrived.  All four sprinklers were replaced and the system was returned to service. The store opened Wednesday at its normal time.  The sprinkler system was installed in December of 2013.

  1. I have been a proponent for sprinkler(s) for 40+ years and even more-so since I discovered your site and received your daily up dates, LCFA is the Lancaster County Fireman’s Association and publishes the Pennsylvania Fireman Newsletter with a monthly circulation of approx. 15,000, worldwide. Next month’s focus…. “Sprinklers, You may get wet, You won’t get DEAD”.
