When it comes to protecting lives and property, simply placing portable fire extinguishers in hallways doesn't make your facility completely safe. In large commercial, industrial, and even residential projects, a comprehensive fire defense system that works intelligently and seamlessly to detect and extinguish danger in seconds is required.

As specialists in the supply and installation of fire extinguishing equipment and systems, we take you on a quick tour to understand how these systems are built and which system is most suitable for the nature of your work.

1- Automatic spraying networks:
It is considered the first and most well-known line of defense in commercial buildings, warehouses, and storage facilities.
How does it work? It consists of a network of pipes running through the ceilings and equipped with heat-sensitive spray nozzles. When the temperature rises due to a fire, the glass housing of the nozzle automatically bursts, releasing water directly onto the fire area.
Where is it used? Hotels, malls, warehouses, administrative buildings, etc.

2- Clean gas fire suppression systems:
Water is an excellent means of extinguishing fires, but it is not suitable for extinguishing electronics and sensitive equipment! This is where clean extinguishing gases such as (FM200 – Novic 1230 – CO2) come in.

How does it work? Upon detecting a fire, the system releases a gas that suffocates the oxygen gas causing the ignition, without leaving any trace or residue that could harm sensitive and electronic devices.
Where is it used? Server rooms and data centers, medical laboratories, control rooms, museums, etc.

3- Fire box networks:
This system is designed for rapid human intervention by trained individuals or civil defense personnel.
How does it work? Wall-mounted cabins containing flexible hoses connected to a high-pressure, continuous water network thanks to the building's fire pumps.
Where is it used? In factory corridors, car garages, buildings, hospital corridors, warehouses, etc.

The importance of engineering design by specialized companies:

Purchasing the best fire equipment in the world does not guarantee your safety if it is not installed according to precise engineering standards. Fire engineering relies on precise calculations that include:
1- Hydraulic calculations: To ensure water flows at the required pressure to the furthest point in the building.
2– Study of flow loads: To accurately determine the capacity of fire pumps and water tanks.
3– Compliance with international and local codes: To ensure passing the civil defense inspection and obtaining the necessary licenses.

Summary
A fire suppression system is an investment in the continuity of your business, protecting lives and property and preventing significant losses for owners. Therefore, don't leave it to chance or haphazard solutions.
