Clean agent fire suppression

  • 1.  Clean agent fire suppression

    Posted 5 days ago

    I'm looking for some examples of peer institutions that have installed clean agent fire suppression systems relatively recently (within the last 10 years). Please let me know if you have a system and could share which clean agent you're using and, if you know, why you went with that particular product. 

    We're going to be replacing a Halon system in a special collections room, most likely with a modern clean agent. Examples from the field will help us think through our options. 

    Any info you can offer will be appreciated. 

    Thanks,

    Andy
