Water based Fire-Extinguishing-Plants –
simple technique, reliable extinguisher

Water based fire extinguishing systems form the main part of the entire extinguishing techniques applied. They have, in the case of sprinkler installations, an uncomplicated and reliable technique well proven since many years.

Amortization of the
Fire-Extinguishing-Plant with the help
of premiums from insurances

Damages by fire hazards are increasing steadily. Sprinkler Systems offer an effective protection. An automatic fire-extinguishing plant extinguishes a fire even at the point of ignition. In 63% of all cases of sprinkler actions only one sprinkler is sufficient to extinguish the fire. In further 24% five sprinklers are sufficient. Damages by the extinguishing process are reduced to a minimum. The sprinkler plant is designed according to the classification of the fire risk to the area to be protected, in order to ensure the best possible protection.

The guidelines of the association of object-insurers or foreign insurance companies are strictly observed. The inspection and the approval of the sprinkler by the above mentioned institutions could gain you up to 65% in premiums from the fire insurance. Thus, within a few years a fire protection installation may have amortized. Besides that, preventive fire protection measures taken during the construction of a building may lead to easier acceptance by the building control office, if an automatic fire protection plant is installed.
