FAQs

Fire Suppression
Installation & Maintenance

It’s an automatic system that detects and suppresses fires without human intervention. It’s designed for enclosed or sensitive areas where traditional fire extinguishers or sprinklers might not be suitable.

These systems are common in data centres, server cabinets, electrical panels, commercial kitchens, and vehicles, anywhere a fast fire response is needed to protect valuable assets.

Yes. Regular checks ensure the system still holds pressure and will work in the event of a fire. It also helps meet legal and insurance requirements.

Fire extinguishers are manual. Fire suppression systems detect fire automatically and activate without anyone needing to be present.

We install and maintain systems from Firetrace, Ansul, FM200, and more.

The three common types of fire suppression systems are:

  • Clean Agent Systems
    use gas (like FM-200 or Novec 1230) to put out fires without damaging equipment.
  • Wet Chemical Systems
    mainly used in kitchens to suppress grease fires.
  • CO₂ Systems
    use carbon dioxide to remove oxygen and stop the fire, often used in engine rooms or electrical panels.

The four main types of fire protection systems are:

  • Fire Detection Systems
    like smoke or heat detectors that alert you to a fire.
  • Fire Suppression Systems
    systems that actively put out fires (e.g. sprinklers, gas systems).
  • Fire Sprinkler Systems
    use water to control or put out fires automatically.
  • Passive Fire Protection
    built-in measures like fire-rated doors, walls, and fire-resistant materials that slow the spread of fire.

The three main methods used to suppress fire are:

  • Cooling
    usually done with water to lower the temperature of the fire.
  • Smothering
    cutting off the oxygen supply, such as with foam or gas.
  • Starving
    removing the fuel source that’s feeding the fire.
