Engineered Fire Suppression Systems in Singapore
A fixed fire suppression system automatically detects and extinguishes fires at the source, preventing rapid fire spread across your premises. Installing an engineered suppression system is critical for high-risk commercial and industrial operations—especially commercial kitchens, server rooms, and enclosed machinery spaces.
Fire Guard supplies and installs engineered fire suppression systems supported by valid Certificates of Conformity (CoC) from accredited certification bodies (such as SETSCO). Our systems provide dual-action protection: activating automatically upon thermal detection, or manually via a pull station.
During activation, the system can be interlocked with the building fire alarm panel, the automatic gas shut-off valve to isolate fuel lines, and the kitchen mechanical ventilation system.
Automatic Kitchen Hood Fire Suppression Systems
Engineered specifically for commercial kitchens, food processing facilities, restaurants, hotels, hospitals, and central catering hubs.
Instead of water, the system utilizes an approved wet chemical extinguishing agent designed specifically for high-temperature Class F cooking oil fires. Upon discharge, the chemical reacts with hot fat via saponification, forming a thick, soapy foam blanket that cuts off oxygen, cools the oil below its auto-ignition temperature, and prevents re-ignition.
Detection & Activation: Strategically placed fusible links or thermal detectors trigger discharge immediately when duct or plenum temperatures spike. A manual pull station allows staff to activate the system instantly.
Targeted Discharge: Specialized discharge nozzles are precisely aimed at hazard areas, including deep fryers, griddles, woks, cooking ranges, hood plenums, and exhaust duct collars.
What We Need to Size Your Kitchen System:
To determine the required cylinder volume and design the pipe layout, provide us with:
- Kitchen hood dimensions (length × width)
- Exhaust duct dimensions (diameter or width × depth)
- Kitchen equipment layout (types and exact placement of appliances beneath the hood)
Marine Fire Suppression Systems (Boats & Yachts)
We supply and service specialized marine fire suppression systems engineered for boats, yachts, and maritime vessels. These systems protect enclosed engine compartments, generator rooms, and machinery bays against fuel and electrical fires. We also conduct routine maintenance and recertification to ensure continuous seaworthiness and operational readiness.
Clean Agent Suppression: FM-200 / Gas Total Flooding
For data centers, server rooms, switchgear rooms, and telecommunication hubs, water and wet chemicals will ruin sensitive electronic hardware.
The FM-200 fire suppression system is an engineered clean-agent gas system that discharges through a fixed distribution pipe network within 10 seconds. It extinguishes Class A, B, and electrical fires by absorbing heat at the molecular level:
- Leaves zero residue, eliminating post-fire chemical cleanup.
- Non-conductive and electrically safe for operating electronics.
- Safe for occupied spaces when designed within standard design concentrations.

Difference Between Kitchen Wet Chemical & FM-200
Kitchen Hood System (Wet Chemical): Formulated specifically for hot grease and cooking oils (Class F). It cools the oil and creates a smothering foam blanket to prevent re-ignition.
FM-200 System (Clean Agent Gas): Designed for electrical and mission-critical assets. It floods the enclosed room with gas to absorb thermal heat without damaging sensitive circuitry or leaving residue.
System Design, QP Submissions & Installation
Our experienced technical team ensures a seamless installation and handover process:
Design & Calculations: We prepare detailed CAD layout drawings and hydraulic calculations specific to your equipment dimensions.
Installation: Systems are assembled and installed by trained technicians according to manufacturer and code requirements.
Regulatory Support: We provide the completed drawings, system certificates, and testing documentation to your appointed Qualified Person (QP) or Registered Inspector (RI) to support the statutory SCDF submission and Fire Certificate process.
Maintenance & Routine Servicing
Under local safety standards, fire suppression systems must be inspected and serviced regularly to guarantee rapid activation during a fire. Fire Guard provides routine preventive maintenance, nozzle clearing, cylinder pressure checks, and mechanical linkage testing for all installed systems.
