      What is Automist®?

      Automist® is a discreet, ceiling-mounted fire suppression system that detects and controls fires quickly across a wide range of building types. Sussex has a diverse built environment: from historic listed buildings in the South Downs National Park and coastal commercial premises to modern business parks and residential developments. Automist's intelligent technology is designed to work across all of them.

      It is particularly suited for Sussex properties and premises including:

      • Commercial offices, retail units and hospitality venues
      • Rural, coastal and listed properties
      • Residential loft conversions and extensions
      • Mixed-use and multi-occupancy developments
      • Care and supported living environments

      Automist® is fully compliant with UK fire safety standards and is regularly specified where East or West Sussex building control requires additional fire protection measures.

      How Our Misting Systems Work

      Automist® works very differently from traditional sprinkler systems. Its intelligent detection and directional mist technology suppresses fires rapidly and effectively, wherever they occur within your Sussex building.

      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 to the building.

      Why Choose a Water Mist System in Sussex?

      Automist® offers modern, intelligent fire protection without the disruption, cost or aesthetic impact of conventional sprinkler systems, making it a natural fit for Sussex's varied buildings and businesses.

      • Discreet ceiling-mounted design that preserves interior aesthetics
      • No large water storage tanks required in most installations
      • Sympathetic to listed, heritage and conservation-area buildings
      • Minimal installation disruption, keeping premises operational
      • Reduced risk of water damage compared to traditional sprinklers
      • Fully compliant with UK building regulations

      For Sussex property owners, business operators, developers and architects, Automist® offers a flexible route to building control approval without the heavy infrastructure demands of a conventional fire suppression system.

      In areas where renovation or conservation constraints apply, such as the South Downs or coastal conservation zones, Automist's low-impact installation makes it an especially practical and cost-effective choice.
