A pre-action system would generally contain the same fluids as any other sprinkler system for those conditions. The "pre-action" merely refers to the method of triggering fluid pressurization prior to activating individual heads.

Which type of fire sprinkler system is most common and easiest to install?

Which is the ONLY type of fire sprinkler system that is installed so that all sprinklers are open and spray water when the system activates?
A "deluge" system floods the entire system when sensors detect smoke or heat, and the sprinkler heads do not have individual valves, as would be found in most systems.
How much water is needed for a sprinkler system?
The most common fire sprinkler system is a wet pipe system wich always has water in it. The sprinkler heads have a heat sensitive element, most commonly a glass bulb filled with liquid that expand when exposed to heat, after a certain temperature is met , usually 160 degrees or more the glass bulb breaks and allows water to flow on the fire in a uniform water density. The sprinkler system may have an alarm device that sounds an audible alarm in the building, and/or call the fire department. The system may have a connection for the fire department to add to the automatic water supply. there are other types of systems, dry-pipe, preaction, and others which are similar but do not have water in the piping initally due to concerns of freezing water in the system, or sensitive areas where accidental water damage would be a greater problem than fire.(museums, computer rooms, etc)

What type of sprinkler systems are the most efficient?
The most efficient system would be to get an under ground drip system. this system used burried lines that feed the roots water.
Which type of fire sprinkler system is installed wherever the system is subject to freezing?
To avoid problems of freezing water and broken pipes, a "dry sprinkler" system can be installed. The sprinkler heads can be sealed shut with temperature-sensitive valves, as in most wet systems, but the pipes are put under air pressure instead of water pressure, until one of the heads is activated by a fire. Water rushes into the system and sprays out of the open sprinkler head(s) within seconds, if all goes according to plan.
What sprinkler systems are the simplest types of automatic fire sprinkler system?
Automatic Sprinkler of Connecticut LLC specializes in the simplest and most cost-effective types of automatic fire sprinkler systems, wet pipe sprinklers. Wet pipe sprinklers are the most common type of sprinkler system and are very reliable. They use water from a pressurized supply line to activate the sprinklers in case of smoke or heat detection, quickly suppressing any fires while minimizing damage.
What type of landscape supplies should I purchase to build a raised bed garden?

What can cause a winterized sprinkler system to start automatically during the winter season?
This question could have numerous explanations and all of them could be right. First of all , the location of the sprinkler system and the type of building it is in is the most important thing to consider. Is the building heated? Does the building have skylights? The first thing you have to exclude is any heat source. Ice buildup on a skylight in the right shape could magnify the sunlight and if its shining on the sprinkler system WA la! Another thing to consider is the buildings heat. Is a sprinkler close to a heat source? All of these things have to be excluded in your search for the answer.
