Statewide
Fire Protection Installed a Fire Suppression System
to Protect Wynn Mountain in Las Vegas |
What
happens when you build a $2 billion hotel on the
Las Vegas strip and you do not like the view across
the street? Well, if you are Steve Wynn, you build
a $130 million mountain, plant 50 year old trees
all over it (instant forest) add a million gallon
lake with waterfalls and you have a fantastic showpiece,
blocking all you do not wish to see.
What happens when worry sets in, about “the mountain” burning
down and your investment in a beautiful living pine forest being lost?
You call the “fire scientists” at Statewide Fire Protection.
With no fire codes and no plans or specifications to guide them, Statewide Fire Protection designed and installed an automatic fire suppression
system like no other. |

The
systems consists of fire pumps drawing water from
the lake to supply 20 deluge systems, 360 open nozzles
and 22 oscillating turret nozzles. It can be operated
manually or be triggered by smoke reading cameras
and flame detectors.
The entire installation took less than six weeks, with support from Statewide Fire Protection's Denver headquarters and various branch offices.
In addition to the work done at Wynn Mountain, Statewide Fire Protection
also installed 20,000 sprinkler heads at the Wynn property casino and low-rise
hotel. |
