The 15th century Tudor House Museum in Southampton is undergoing repairs and seeing a new café and venues for special events. A water mist fire protection product has been selected to provide fire protection.
Marioff has protected cultural heritage sites globally such as churches, museums, cathedrals, theatres, and castles. The HI-FOG water mist fire product claims its makers is low water consumption, using up to 90 per cent it’s claimed less than conventional sprinkler systems. It uses stainless steel, high grade brass and other sustainable materials.
Built in 1495, the Tudor House Museum is Southampton’s oldest museum and dearly loved by local residents. Over the centuries, it has served many purposes, from a family residence to a bookbinder’s business. The need to protect this gem of Southampton from fire was obvious. However, such an old structure presents many challenges for a conventional fire protection system. There is very little space for installing such systems, and visual aesthetics must be preserved.
