[quote="Leroy"](quoted from post at 05:39:44 05/01/14) First things first. Most barn fires are from lightning and as soon as the strike hits it is all gone. I have seen that happen, 20 seconds after the strike started the barn was fully engulfed in flames. No sprinkler system could start fast enough to do any good. What the others are from is most likely somebody burning something that gets away from them that is unatended so no way would anybody be there to start the sprinkler and sprinklers would be inside, not outside where those fires get started. Next is arson that takes the buildings and an arsnist would know enough to disable any sprinkler system before they started the fire. Electrical problems would have the fire going before you would know it to be able to turn on a dry sprinkler system. And think about what it would take to install something in a large 100 year old bank barm with main floor and then a mow above. cost way more than the barn is worth.[/qu
