      What is Automist® and Why Does London Need It?

      Automist® is a discreet, ceiling-mounted fire suppression system that detects and controls fires quickly within residential properties. Unlike traditional sprinkler systems, it uses intelligent heat detection and targeted water mist technology to suppress fires at their source — using significantly less water and causing far less collateral damage.

      London's dense urban environment, high-rise residential buildings, HMOs, and commercial premises make robust fire and electrical safety compliance more critical than anywhere else in the UK. From Victorian terraces and converted warehouses to high-rise apartments and busy commercial premises across London, Automist® is particularly well-suited to properties where full sprinkler systems are impractical, or where building regulations require enhanced fire protection as part of an extension, loft conversion, or change of use.

      • Open-plan living spaces
      • Kitchen areas
      • Care and supported living environments
      • Listed buildings and heritage properties

      How Automist® Works

      Automist® uses intelligent detection and directional mist technology to suppress fires rapidly and effectively — without flooding the room.

      Automist Step 1

      1. In the event of a fire, the system is triggered automatically by a ceiling-mounted detector.

      Automist Step 2

      2. Automist®'s sprayheads scan the room to locate temperature changes indicating a fire.

      Automist Step 3

      3. The sprayhead best positioned to tackle the fire targets it with a precise water mist.

      Automist Step 4

      4. The water mist removes heat, suppressing the fire while minimising water damage to your London property.
