A sprinkler system breakdown and resulting flood at Mt. Hope High School last week caused nearly $100,000 in damage, of which the Bristol Warren Regional School District will pay upwards of $60,000.
The School Committee Budget and Facilities subcommittee Monday approved first passage of the emergency repairs, which include a new pump to control the schools fire protection system, and new carpeting and floor tiles in the damaged areas. After Rhode Island Interlocal Trust the school districts insurance company pays the claim, the district will be liable for $50,000 to $60,000, according to Facilities Director George Simmons.
Insurance covers damage from the pump, not damage to the pump, Simmons told the committee, leaving the school district to pick up the tab on the most expensive part of the repairs.
The problem began last Thursday when a seal on the pump that controls the water pressure to the fire protection sprinklers broke, flooding the pump house behind the high school. The water made its way into the school, coming up through the floors, and ruining carpets and floor tiles in classrooms, hallways and Principal Donald Rebellos office, Mr. Simmons said. There is no indication the flood caused any mold problems, he said.
Work is already underway to repair the buildings interior, which will be complete before school starts, Mr. Simmons said. He is also expecting the new pump to be in place and the sprinkler system to be operational before the start of the school year. The Bristol Fire Department is working with Rehoboth, Mass.-based Home & Commercial Security to expedite the pumps installation, Mr. Simmons said.

Pump malfunction floods Mt. Hope
On July 24, at 2:02 a.m., firefighters from the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District responded to a residential fire in the 10000 block of Lone Dove Street in 4S Ranch. When they arrived on scene, firefighters found that a single sprinkler head had activated and extinguished a fire in the garage near the water heater. One person was home at the time and was able to safely evacuate the home.
No doubt this would have been a fully-involved garage fire in the sprinkler system was not present, said Battalion Chief Fred Cox. This is an excellent example of how residential fire sprinkler systems can save lives and property.
After the firefighters made sure the fire was out and restored the fire sprinkler system, the occupant of the home was allowed to return to the residence.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation. To learn more about residential fire sprinkler systems and how to properly maintain them, please visit the RSF Fire Districts Fire Protection Systems website at http://www.rsf-fire.org/sprinklers/index.html.

Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- It was a rude awakening for people on the seventh floor of the hotel at Palace Station casino-hotel.
The fire alarm and sprinkler system went off around midnight on Wednesday, forcing several guests to be evacuated from their rooms.
But there was never a fire.
It turns out, a teenage girl was trying to steam a dress. The girl told Action News she hung the dress from an overhead sprinkler fixture in her seventh floor hotel room.
When she was steaming it while it was hanging, the hot steam triggered the sprinkler to go off. Cell phone video shows how water started shooting out and drenching the hotel room.
The water soaked the hallways and other rooms on the same floor, so several guests had to be moved to other rooms in the hotel.
The teenager is visiting from South Carolina and is in Las Vegas this week for the Cinderella International Scholarship Pageant for girls and young women.
No one was hurt in this incident, but there will be a lot of cleanup to do at the hotel.
