A kitchen fire in a flat in Coppice House, a tower block in Birmingham caused a sprinkler activation which restricted fire damage to the oven grill and the plastic control knobs for the hob. There was smoke damage to the whole of the kitchen but water damage was minimal due to quick response time from West Midlands Fire Service, assessment of situation and their isolation of the sprinkler system. Only one appliance from WMFS was required due to the sprinkler activation.
