Historic buildings and cultural heritage
Effective and reliable fire protection
Protecting our history
Cultural heritage and historic buildings are important reminders of our history. Fires in historic buildings such as churches, museums, art galleries, and libraries are catastrophic and can cause severe damage to the building, and loss of irreplaceable collections and artifacts. Historic buildings often contain wooden framing throughout the entire structure, and together with old electrical circuits and combustible interiors, these buildings are highly susceptible to fire. The VID FIREKILL low pressure water mist system provides effective and safe protection for different areas of historic buildings such as facades, church towers, attics, halls, and hallways. The low water pressure ensures minimum water damage to the building structure and valuable collections.
To preserve the building structure and irreplaceable values, historic buildings need reliable and safe fire protection.
