Frequently Asked Questions on Fire Suppression Systems

What is a fire suppression system?
A fire suppression system is a collection of equipment, devices, and techniques designed to quickly detect and extinguish fires, limiting their spread and minimizing potential damage to property and risk to human life.

How does a fire suppression system work?
While the operation may vary by system type, a typical process includes:

  • Detection: Sensors identify a fire and send signals to the control panel.

  • Alert: Alarms are activated to notify occupants for a safe evacuation.

  • Activation: The control panel either simultaneously or after a short delay releases the suppression agent.

  • Extinguishing: The agent cools the fire, interrupts the combustion process, or displaces oxygen to help extinguish the flames.

  • Post-Event Recovery: Once the fire is suppressed, the system may shut off the agent, cease alarm signals, and activate ventilation systems to clear smoke. After an incident, the system is reset and any expended agents are replaced.

What types of fire suppression systems are available?
Systems include:

  • Traditional water sprinkler systems

  • Pressurized inert gas systems

  • Wet chemical foam systems

  • Water mist systems

What is the difference between a sprinkler system and a fire suppression system?
Sprinkler systems generally use water to suppress fires, controlling flames and minimizing structural damage. In contrast, fire suppression systems rely on chemical agents that quickly lower temperatures and halt combustion without the use of water—ideal for protecting sensitive environments like those with electrical equipment.

When is a fire suppression system required?
Fire suppression systems are critical in locations where water-based sprinkler systems may not be appropriate or sufficient, such as areas containing sensitive electrical components or equipment that could be damaged by water.

Is fire suppression safe for humans?
Many modern fire suppression systems use non-toxic agents that, when discharged at appropriate concentrations, are safe for human exposure. These agents are designed to protect both the environment and human health.
