Most states require that all gasoline fuel-dispensing islands be protected by an overhead fire suppression system. The systems are designed to assist occupants in evacuating vehicles that may catch on fire due to spilled fuel in the protected area.
Modern gas stations are designed with self-service high-speed pumps that dispense fuel extremely fast. Customers may accidentally drive away without returning the nozzle to the pump resulting in a spill. Running engines, burning cigarettes, static electricity and sparks can ignite the fuel quickly.
Allied Fire Control Services installs, inspects and services gas station suppression systems designed to save lives in the event of a fire. Each system is specifically designed for the facility. We utilize pre-engineered, modular components and are configured to allow you to have complete control over pump shutdown and manual activation, so they are adaptable to every application.
