Plumis technology
A world leader in intelligent fire suppression systems, Plumis designs technology that detects smoke and targets a fire’s location using thermal sensors, which can offer improved efficiency and activation speed over traditional methods.
In partnership with Ferguson, Plumis empowers installers to provide fire protection technology without the need for piping upgrades or additional setups for tanks and pumps.
Reap the benefits of an Automist automatic fire suppression system
Automist is easy to install and uses 10 times less water than a typical 13D fire sprinkler system does, with a maximum water output demand of just 2.4 gallons per minute. This targeted system suppresses fire with less water damage.
Because Automist only fills with water when fire is detected, your customers have less risk of leaks and frozen pipes in the winter.
A discreet addition to any application, Automist offers an unobtrusive design with wall plates in a wide range of finishes.
How Automist fire suppression works
When overhead smoke sensors are activated, Automist uses thermal sensing to scan the room and locate fire.
Once the fire is detected, Automist’s spray head aims a targeted, high-pressure stream of water mist to suppress the fire, minimizing damage to the rest of the space.
Automist applications
Conventional fire suppression systems can be challenging to install in areas of low water pressure or freezing or seismic risk zones. Automist offers fire protection professionals improved installation for these situations and more.
Residential fire suppression system
The wall-mounted Automist system doesn’t need bulky tanks and water pumps or major piping changes. The low-impact installation makes this ideal for custom homes, heritage buildings, retrofits, cabins and ADUs.
Automist offers a way to balance fire and water risk without sacrificing fire protection. Discover how Automist helps U.S. insurers address these risks, particularly in high-value or architecturally unique properties.
Fike technology
The Fike FM approved DuraQuench Pro™ is a state-of-the-art, cost-effective alternative to the standard conventional light hazard sprinkler system, utilized in data center applications as well as a plug-in on an industrial application where a mist system is specified.
While sprinklers are ideal for countless applications, water mist systems offer several advantages over sprinklers in many scenarios, including:
•Fast-acting suppression
•Uses 50% less water than other sprinkler systems
•Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) resistance
•Compliant with NFPA 750
What makes DuraQuench Pro a cost-effective option?
Reduce the need for water storage tank, fire pump, or new underground. DuraQuench is a much smaller pump that is typically served by the domestic, potable water supply at the site, requiring no additional water supply lines. Requires minimal positive water inlet pressure for proper operation.
