Water Mist Systems in Offices

As the water mist system standards BS8458 for residential protection and BS8489 for commercial protection have been withdrawn, installers in the UK can no longer provide product to these standards.

Building control and other authorities having jurisdiction should no longer be able to accept systems installed to these standards, as they are no longer included in the building regulations part B (fire protection section)

BS9991 which also deal with fire protection matters no longer recognises water mist systems as an option in any format.
