Sprinkler systems

Chubb provides a range of sprinkler system solutions, tailored to your needs, planning a system that will maximise safety and efficiency while reducing the risk of false alarms or water damage.

• Standard sprinkler systems discharge water on and around a fire and are generally used to protect large areas as well as unnoticed spaces such as floor ducts and roof areas
• Deluge systems are commonly found in industrial areas, such as power plants or chemical plants; these systems use all sprinkler heads to discharge a high velocity of water over a large area
• Site survey, installation and ongoing monitoring and maintenance to meet legal requirements

Water mist fire protection

Water mist systems utilise a very fine water spray that quickly turns into vapour, absorbing heat and energy from a fire. Mist-based systems have a far lower application rate than a traditional sprinkler system, greatly reducing the risk of water damage, so they are typically used in areas where higher-value assets are stored and in occupied areas. Chubb offers approved tailor-made fire solutions for specific applications such as industrial fryer protection and machinery spaces.

Gaseous systems

Gaseous suppression systems involve an automatic detection and trigger system which discharges an agent in the event of a fire. These systems are suitable for high risk and high value electrical assets such as computers, servers, and vital technical equipment. As there is no liquid involved, there is no risk of water damage. Chubb offers fixed solutions utilising rapid release gas technology, snuffing flames within seconds, with systems suitable for both occupied and unoccupied spaces.

• FM200 systems
• Novec 1230 systems
• Inert gas systems
• CO2 fire suppression systems
• Room integrity testing for gaseous fixed fire suppression systems

Foam systems

Chubb's foam systems are designed to safeguard highly flammable and combustible liquids. Foam deluge systems are used to release vast quantities of fire suppressing foam across a large area, making them particularly effective in environments such as industrial chemical plants and aviation hangars. As part of combined detection and suppression solutions, our systems can be triggered automatically in the event that a fire is detected.

Special hazards

Chubb offers specialised systems that utilise fire suppression technologies designed to tackle special hazards, wherever there is a far greater risk to life or high value assets are housed on the premises, adopting an approach that considers each special hazard in its own context.
