sprinkler

Phillips had left work that morning to check on her 18-year-old dog, Little Miss, and turn on her sprinklers when she first heard of the fire.

"The most important thing I’ve got is a holy water sprinkler... The idea is that water is blessed and it’s then quite literally sprinkled around the house."

A digital billboard urged residents to turn off their sprinklers when it rains.

“I didn’t know how that was going to be possible, because we had many more plants to water, but switching to drip irrigation made such a difference from regular sprinklers.”

A sprinkler system could have changed or limited the huge multi-storey car park fire at London Luton Airport, according to a new report.
