How Water Mist Fire Suppression Systems Work
Engineered to British standards (BS EN 14972), our automatic water mist fire suppression systems combat fires efficiently while using up to 10% less water than conventional sprinklers, offering an eco friendly solution for high risk premises throughout Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria. Combined with fire detection systems, response times to even a small fire are rapid. Suppression works in three ways: damping solid fuel to stop fires spreading and limit surrounding damage, cooling heat as fine mist droplets evaporate and absorb radiant heat, and displacing oxygen at the source of the flame to create a localised inert environment. Oltec works with trusted manufacturers to deliver type tested systems, tailored precisely to your premises and risk profile.
Water Mist Fire Suppression System Installation
Oltec FM tailors every water mist fire suppression installation to the unique requirements of each premises across Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, assessing size, layout and the type of combustible materials present to ensure maximum protection with minimal disruption. We install water mist sprinkler systems in high risk locations to deliver the most effective suppression available, with every installation complying fully with British standards (BS EN 14972). Tailored coverage means efficient designs require fewer sprinkler heads, reducing complexity and ongoing maintenance costs, while rapid activation contains fires before they spread. Using up to 10% less water than traditional systems reduces reinstatement costs and downtime, allowing businesses to resume operations faster after an incident, whatever the industry or building type.
