OUR SERVICES
We have a team with an extensive knowledge in the following services :
Commercial & Residential Fire Sprinklers
A Fire Sprinkler System is a system of sprinklers which releases water to extinguish and prevent the spread of fires.
Sprinkler systems are activated by a rise in heat, which each individual sprinkler can detect.
In most cases water is the most effective way of extinguishing a fire. Often a Sprinkler System using water is the most inexpensive type of sprinkler system.
Wet or Dry Risers
Kitchen Suppression
A Wet Riser System is a supply intended to distribute water to multiple levels or compartments of a building. Buildings exceeding 50m in height require a Wet Riser System
A Wet Riser is permanently charged with water and should be inspected or tested regularly.
A Dry Riser System is a series of pipework and valves. Any building of more than 18 meters or going 10 meters below ground level, must have a Dry Riser System, through building regulations.
A Dry Riser System does not store water, but when pressurised is used by the emergency services.
Kitchen Suppression Systems are most common in working professional kitchens. This system is a wet chemical foam system, which omits water-based chemical foam directly to the source.
A Kitchen Suppression System is safer and more effective than fire extinguishers, by tackling fires that may have spread into kitchen canopies and extraction ducts. The system also reduces damage to the industrial kitchen equipment.
