\ Specialist Fire Suppression for the Hotel Sector \ The Hotel industry is worth a staggering £115 billion each year and contributes to just fewer than 10% of the UK’s gross domestic product. This is a highly competitive industry and hotels have to ensure that they remain competitive across all disciplines of their business. Fireworks Fire Protection Ltd have been working in this sector for a number of years and have been providing specialist high and low pressure watermist solutions to protect your risk whether in the public areas, restaurants, bedrooms, kitchen, sauna or ‘back of house’ areas of the hotel.
Although fires in hotels aren’t regular occurrence hotels do have a responsibility to protect their customers from this risk and at the same time make sure that any installations don’t upset the running of the hotel and ensure that inconvenience to guests is kept to a minimum.
HYDRAMIST® fire suppression systems deliver water as a fine atomised mist. This mist is quickly converted to steam which smothers the fire and prevents further oxygen from reaching it. During this process evaporation creates a cooling effect which blocks the transfer of radiant heat allowing HYDRAMIST® to combine the fire suppression properties of both conventional water-based sprinkler and gaseous systems. HYDRAMIST® is very effective at fighting fires and with around 70% less water used then a conventional sprinkler system the collateral damage in the event of a fire, or false activation is limited.
The droplet size of the HYDRAMIST® system yields a surface area at least 100 times greater than a conventional sprinkler droplet for the same volume of water and is very effective at taking out the heat and energy from the fire as well as reducing smoke particles which is one of the major causes of death from fires.
