Home Fire Suppression Systems
for your Extension
Looking to extend your property? Protect your home and your family with a mist fire suppression system and ensure you comply with building regulations.
Fire Suppression for Home Extensions and Renovations
Home extensions, such as kitchen additions and loft conversions, are a popular, cost-effective way to gain extra space without the need to move. However, modern open-plan layouts, while visually appealing, can increase the speed at which fire spreads through a property.
Installing a home fire suppression system helps to mitigate this risk by:
- Protecting lives—giving occupants more time to escape
- Minimising fire damage—safeguarding your investment and home
When extending or altering your home, it’s essential to consider relevant building regulations to ensure full compliance. This is where iMist™ comes in.
Thanks to the flexibility and compact design of the iMist™ system, we can retrofit into existing homes quickly, cleanly, and cost-effectively, with minimal disruption to your daily life. Whether you’re building up, out, or opening up your living space, our solution ensures enhanced safety without compromising on style or layout.
Why is Fire Suppression a Requirement for Extensions?
Changes to Fire Safety Management
Adding an extension can alter the way fire safety is managed in a property. New layouts, additional floors, or open-plan
spaces can impact escape routes and compartmentation.
Fire suppression systems help control fires early, keeping the property safe while ensuring compliance with Building Control.
Keeps Escape Routes Safe
Extensions can make escape routes longer or more complex. Early fire suppression slows the spread of fire and smoke, giving occupants more time to evacuate safely.
Supports Modern Open-Plan Living
Many homeowners prefer open-plan designs, which may remove fire doors or other fire barriers. Fire suppression provides the additional protection needed to maintain safety in these layouts.
Regulatory Compliance
Building Regulations (Approved Document B) may require fire suppression in extensions. Installing a system ensures your property meets legal requirements and passes Building Control approval.
Protects Property and Family
Fires in extensions can cause significant damage to both the new and existing parts of a home. Suppression systems help contain fire quickly, reducing damage and protecting occupants.
