What is Automist?
Automist is an advanced fire suppression system that uses intelligent water mist technology to detect and control fires effectively. Designed to address the limitations of traditional sprinkler systems, Automist offers a modern, efficient, and discreet solution for residential and commercial properties. It is building control approved.
How Automist Works
In the event of a fire, Automist is activated by ceiling-mounted smoke or heat detectors. Once triggered, the system performs a scan to locate the fire within the room.
Upon identifying the fire, Automist dispenses a targeted water mist directly at the source, cooling the area and reducing oxygen levels to suppress the flames. This targeted approach ensures rapid response and effective fire control.
