How Water Mist Fire Suppression Systems Work
Our automatic water mist fire suppression systems, compliant with British standards (BS EN 14972), deliver precise, efficient protection for high risk sites across Gateshead, Tyne and Wear while using up to 10% less water than conventional sprinklers. Paired with fire detection technology, response begins the instant a fire is identified. Suppression happens through three combined actions: damping fuel to stop fire spread, cooling heat as fine mist droplets rapidly evaporate and absorb radiant energy, and displacing oxygen to create a localised inert environment that extinguishes flames without harming surrounding areas. Oltec FM partners with leading manufacturers to supply type tested systems tailored to your specific building and risk requirements.
