Enabling open plan layouts with Automist
Automist provides enhanced fire protection to meet building regulations in homes with open plan interiors
Airy, spacious, free-flowing open plan layouts are highly prized, adding thousands to the value of a home. However, all too often plans can be at odds with building regulations, requiring compensatory measures to gain building control approval.
Automist is a contemporary alternative to traditional sprinklers and is being used by a growing number of homeowners and architects, to meet building regulations, whilst enabling open plan layouts.
Matching the performance of a traditional sprinkler, but using a tenth of the water, Automist connects to the normal domestic water supply. There’s no need for a tank or to accommodate ugly pipework. Automist’s compact design is ideal for spaces where it’s difficult to retrofit a sprinkler, with the system’s pump and controller small enough to fit into most kitchen or airing cupboards.
