As a commercial property owner or premises manager, you have a legal responsibility to ensure that you have taken all necessary steps to safeguard against the outbreak and spread of fire. A fire suppression system combines fire detection technology with immediate fire containment and suppression measures, giving occupants of the building ample time to escape while extinguishing the flames on the spot. Instead of water, which is problematic or ineffective against many types of fire, foam or carbon dioxide is often used in fire suppression systems depending on the location of the system and how the building is used.
To calculate the cost of a fire suppression system, there are several factors to take into consideration:
The fire suppression system price will vary from one property to another, so it is essential to work with an experienced fire protection company who will assess your needs and evaluate the building before agreeing a final quote.
A fire suppression system installation cost can start around £1000 for microenvironments and upwards of £100,000 for large and complex systems. We recommend requesting a bespoke quote that provides the level of fire protection your business needs to fulfil its statutory health and safety obligations. Also, it is beneficial to work with an installer who is ISO-certified and offers additional quality assurances, such as being accredited by the BAFE Fire Safety Register.
