Water Mist Fire Sprinkler Alternative
There are so many benefits of water mist fire suppression systems. Water mist systems are still a fairly new system in the market, and are gradually becoming more recognised by homeowners and property developers, increasing in popularity due to the ease of the system and the multiple benefits, especially when compared to fire suppression alternatives.
Damage Control
Post-fire damage is reduced due to water mist fire suppression systems discharging less water and mist being able to evapourate quickly.
No Tanks Required
Unlike sprinkler systems, iMist fire suppression doesn’t require you to have any tanks in your home, so you don’t have to loose expensive square meterage.
Removes Heat & Oxygen
As the mist attacks the fire, a percentage turns to steam particles that displace the heat and oxygen in the room, meaning all 3 parts of the fire triangle are attacked.
Quicker Installation
iMist uses only a percentage of water and uses custom flexible hoses compared with traditional large pipework used with sprinkler companies.
Less Water Useage
Water mist fire suppression systems require less water than traditional sprinkler systems on an average of 80%, which is even less than a fire brigade would use.
Low Cost
Due to installations being quicker, and less third-party requirements, iMist provide cost certainty fire suppression systems with no hidden costs.
