No I haven't fitted one but as I'm just about to move you can have my spare shower head and attach it to a hose pipe......or I can lend you the little hole in my kitchen ceiling that's got water coming through it as we speak  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D joking aside what do you want that for Rich ?.

Well bikes are worth a few quid and the room is done over the top.
fridge and freezer out there as well
just a precaution if it's easy enough to do.
Sprinkler heads are cheap enough ,i have water just need to know what
else is needed.
PS thanks for the offer of the shower head ;D ;D
Graham been under the floor boards again digging into his stash ;D ;D ;D

Seems like a fairly sensible idea if there is a room above it. May even lower your house insurance??

what about killing two birds etc,

 start,or use your home brewing vats as an emergency sprinkler system,

if you never get a fire,you have a great tasting fire control fluid ,

Naaah.......you need a Halon Gas System.........Ultra Violet Sensors detect flames then activate the Halon Gas which floods the room and kills the fire - as it removes/ replaces the Oxygen.

Seemples.....well it was back in 1978 when I was working on Gas Turbine driven Compressors which had such Firefighting Systems in place - you don't want a fire in a Gas or Oil Field do you!

They were also used in key installations on London Underground until Water Fog systems came into use.......as Halon not only kills the fire - but anyone who is unfortunately in the room when it activates!

Just designed a servo controlled  water zone  valve /electronic controller for the place i am employed 3 days/week . We are selling  it to this company in the link. The MD came in last week and they have a stunning product with a head that infra red seeks the source of fire and then fogs that specific area.
