Looking to have a traditional sprinkler system installing in your Hawthorne, New York area home or business? Visit us online or give us a call at 88 to schedule an appointment.Welcome to the Mobile Fire-Rescue Department Office of Community Risk Reduction web page. Still being tested in the United States and England, the Automist is not yet for sale, but here at W & M Sprinkler we are interested in finding out what type of impact the system will have on fire safety. Only three-fourths of an inch in diameter, the sprinkler is placed on walls instead of the traditional ceiling position. The Automist system introduces a few unique features, the most interesting one being the tiny nozzle used to douse fires. A high-pressure system, the sprinkler employs a jet of water mist towards the fire, using only 10 percent of the water currently required to stop fires via sprinkler system. During its scan, the system will be able to target the source of the heat, directing its spray nozzle towards the flames and eliminating the fire without causing excess water damage.
The most recent fire safety development has been made by Plumis, a London-based manufacturer that recently introduced the Automist Smartscan.Ī wireless system that has a heat sensor mounted on the ceiling of each room and a mister mounted on the wall, the Automist Smartscan will begin scanning if it detects temperatures higher than 135 degrees Fahrenheit. Since the creation of the first fire engine in the late 1600s, technological improvements have consistently provided us with the information and supplies needed to increase our safety when it comes to fires.
