      What is Automist®?

      Automist® is a discreet, ceiling-mounted fire suppression system designed to detect and control fires quickly and efficiently within residential properties. Unlike traditional sprinkler systems, Automist uses intelligent heat detection and targeted water mist technology to suppress fires at their source.

      It is particularly suited for:

      • Loft conversions
      • Open-plan living spaces
      • Kitchen areas
      • Extensions and renovations
      • Care and supported living environments

      The system is fully compliant with UK residential fire safety standards and is commonly specified where building regulations require additional fire protection measures.

      How Our Misting Systems Work

      Automist® works differently to traditional sprinkler systems. It uses intelligent detection and directional mist technology to suppress fires rapidly and effectively.

      Automist Fire Suppression System

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

      2. Automist®’s sprayheads will scan the room to look for temperature changes indicating a fire.

      3. If danger is detected, the sprayhead best positioned to tackle it targets it with watermist.

      4. Watermist removes heat, suppressing the fire while minimising water damage.
