What is Automist® and Why Does Surrey 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.
Surrey's high proportion of large residential properties, private schools, care homes, and business parks means fire and electrical safety standards must meet a wide variety of demanding requirements. From large family homes and private schools to business parks and care facilities across Surrey, 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.
- Loft conversions and extensions
- 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.
1. In the event of a fire, the system is triggered automatically by a ceiling-mounted detector.
2. Automist®'s sprayheads scan the room to locate temperature changes indicating a fire.
3. The sprayhead best positioned to tackle the fire targets it with a precise water mist.
4. The water mist removes heat, suppressing the fire while minimising water damage to your Surrey property.
