A type of sprinkler system used in buildings that is designed to prevent freezing in cold temperatures. Instead of using only water, the system’s piping is filled with a special antifreeze solution. When the sprinkler system is activated, the antifreeze solution is released first, followed by a discharge of water from the connected water supply. This combination of antifreeze and water helps to ensure that the sprinkler system functions properly even in freezing conditions.
