do I need a fire suppression system?

is protected from the hazards of fire in the engine compartment
gives the boater peace of mind. When you feel secure, you
can enjoy the most from your investment.

do I determine which model size?
Selecting the proper model size:

engine system is required. Complete the Design Guide and
send it to Sea-Fire for a detailed proposal.
Can
I use more than one extinguishing cylinder to protect the
same engine compartment?
Pre-engineered systems (FE, FH, FG &FD models are independent
systems. One cylinder (system) must be capable of protecting
the total volume of the area to be protected. (A back-up system
may be utilized, but it too must be sufficiently sized to
protect the total area. Engineered systems (H series, over
1500 cuft) are custom designed and typically use more than
one system.
What
is FM-200?

extinguishing agent used to protect high- value assets like
pleasure craft boats and yachts and the people on the vessels.
