Water mist fire suppression · West of Scotland
A sprinkler head floods a room to put out a fire. Water mist does the same job with up to 70% less water — no large tank, far less damage, designed to BS 8458. Installed across Glasgow, Paisley and the west of Scotland.
Why water mist
High-pressure mist controls fire fast while using a fraction of the water — protecting the building, its contents and the people inside.
Suppresses fire with up to 70% less water than a sprinkler system — dramatically less flooding and water damage to property and contents.
Runs straight off the mains, so there’s no bulky storage tank to find space for — saving room, weight and installation cost.
Each nozzle activates individually at around 57°C, releasing mist only where the heat is — and each one uses a fraction of the water a sprinkler head would.
Fine 50–150 micron droplets cool the fire and displace oxygen at once, knocking it down fast and helping prevent re-ignition.
Water mist vs sprinklers
Both put the fire out. Only one does it without soaking the building, its contents and everything you own.

FAQ
For the buildings we work in — homes, flats, HMOs, hotels and fit-outs — yes. For large industrial or high-hazard sites a sprinkler system is often the required choice, and we’ll tell you if that’s your building.
It’s very unlikely. Each nozzle is sealed by a glass bulb that only bursts at around 57°C, and only the nozzle at the fire opens — cooking steam or burnt toast won’t set the system off.
