Water Mist for Aurora projects

Fine water-droplet systems that suppress fire with a fraction of the water of a conventional sprinkler — ideal where water damage and supply are constraints.

Applicable code basis — Illinois

Building: No statewide building code (2021 IBC widely adopted locally)

Fire: State Fire Marshal code / locally adopted IFC

Adoption is local; Chicago maintains its own building code. Design in Aurora is coordinated with the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

System types we design

Low-Pressure

Under 175 psi; larger droplets, simpler infrastructure.

Intermediate-Pressure

175–500 psi range for a balance of performance and cost.

High-Pressure

Above 500 psi; fine mist for machinery and special hazards.
