Automatic firefighting systems

Best for Malls, hotels, warehouses and similar buildings

The most common automatic system. Each heat-sensitive head opens on its own, so water falls only where the fire is.

• Wet pipe: pipes filled with pressurised water, ready at every head
• Dry pipe (deluge): open heads with detection, a control panel and a deluge valve
• Head rating, pipe sizes and K-factor from hazard class and hydraulic calculations
• Only UL listed and FM approved heads and fittings

Safety CO₂ is dangerous to people, so we only install it in rooms where no one works.
