Remember this is our normal Texas weather however, unless you loose electricity or will be traveling I would still suggest the same options in previous posts.
Stay warm and we are here if you need us.

Note schedule (previous 2 posts) as we are your contact points only . Racheal and Chelsea will not be in the office at all and the office phone is rolled to a cell phone held by myself, Claudia; and does accept messages but not voicemail. (I will fix that next week, when I actually can get into a ATT store)
We are all Iphone users so FaceTime is great or FaceBook has video call options as well. Pictures speak a 1000 words. Let us help you!
Also, Please understand we will not be refilling systems until January 2023 and depending on the demand it may very well be a process.

Again good luck all, but this is our typical Texas weather, always use caution and always make the best decision for your home, again muti-family and businesses have a different set of rules.
Remember we charge a flat rate of $100 to refill your systems to make it convenient for you to make a decision. If we can help you decide or calm your fears that is what we are here for.

Pictures of drain down procedures for single family residential only. My advice is contact your local fire department, HOA, insurance and alert them that your system is off for inclement weather.
Call or facetime us if you need guidance.

Hello all, Happy Holidays!
I will be posting for our artic blast predicted to hit Thursday and Friday over the next few days as my advice changes. First I would like to remind our customers that this is our typical Texas weather, not what we experienced February 2021. That was a catastrophic event, unseen in many years in Texas. And this post is only for our single family home owners as they are the only ones with these options.
1. If you will be traveling for the holidays - drain it just like you would with your plumbing. Or leave a trusted neighbor/family member to do it in the even of option 2
2. If we loose electricity, or go to extensive rolling blackouts
3. Leave it live and operational. Remember the helpers we gave you. Open the cabinet if your riser is in the garage and place a space heater in front of it to keep it nice and warm. Also if your attic access is in the conditioned home open it up and let heat spread to your attic. If the access is in the garage, shut it do not open. You must maintain 40F, consider putting a thermometer in the attic for ease of monitoring.
4. Call us if you need us or have concerns, need guidance; please understand that we are answering calls as fast as we can but we are overloaded with the holiday schedule as well.

Office schedule. The office and staff will be out from noon Friday, Dec. 23 - Jan. 2 with the exception of emergency service calls and special situations in active construction. However please understand that we want to help you over the phone if we can, however in person will be very limited.

Wishing you all the best from Rhino Fire Protection, LLC. Stay Safe!

Only the finest material!

Don’t forget to prep for the attic blast 🥶

🥶🥶🥶

A Wind Chill Watch is in effect from Thursday morning through Friday morning for all of our North and Central Texas counties. Dangerously cold wind chills as low as -15 degrees are possible. These wind chills could result in hypothermia if precautions are not taken. Avoid extended time outside, and if you absolutely have to brave the elements, make sure to bundle up with multiple lightweight layers and cover exposed skin.

If you have any questions or concerns about your Fire Sprinkler System in preparation of this cold weather, give us a shout.

What weather are you hoping for this holiday season?

We're LIVE with your travel forecast, temps, and chances for a white Christmas!

Cold conditions will get colder as an arctic front arrives Wednesday night into Thursday of next week. For Thurs night: expect lows in the teens & 20s, with wind chills in the single digits & teens. Conditions should remain cold through Christmas weekend!

Happy Friday!! 💦🔥💪🏼

If you have not already prepared your fire sprinkler system for this inclement weather, you should before it's too late! Pipes begin to freeze and can break in consistently low temperatures, like what the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and surrounding areas are experiencing this week.

How to winterize your sprinkler system?

• Leave any access panels or doors open so your central heat can reach the system.
• Risers located in the garage can be kept warm by using an appropriately sized space heater.
• Open any attic access in order to allow your central heating to reach the area.
• Keep your system/pipes at 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Check to make sure you have proper insulation, especially in the attic areas.

If you're in need of assistance, please feel free to contact us to schedule an inspection or service if you're noticing water damage. Below we have listed our teams' contact numbers.
