Guest Michael Posted May 11, 2015 Report Posted May 11, 2015 I just noticed a number of Youtube videos produced by a company named 'Firebuggroup'. In one video - dated 2014 I believe - they claimed to have invented the worlds first water mist fire extinguisher. It is available in 3 and 6 liter configurations and happen to look exactly like the excellent units you sell. Are these guys OEM's for Jewelsaffire products - or actually the people behind the E-Series extinguishers? The company appear to have a UK/Polish related staff, so perhaps there is a link to the claimed polish inventor of the pulsator module.. Just curious. Finally, when are you going to get a reseller in Denmark ? Regards Michael Quote
Safelincs Posted May 13, 2015 Report Posted May 13, 2015 Hi Michael Good to hear from you again from faraway Denmark! Still no reseller in Denmark yet, I am afraid :) The low pressure water mist nozzle was developed by a Polish company and Jewel was the first company to manufacture and sell dry water mist extinguishers in the UK using the Polish nozzle. However, for a short period, Firebug also started manufacturing and selling water mist extinguishers here in the UK. By now, I believe, they have stopped trading in the UK. Harry Quote
green-foam Posted May 13, 2015 Report Posted May 13, 2015 Firebug ceased the supply of fire extinguishers in the UK as of September 16th 2014 (Although later, they did sell off what they had left at a reduced price) Quote
AnthonyB Posted May 21, 2015 Report Posted May 21, 2015 The only other manufacturer who uses the E-Series mist nozzle (under license I believe) is the Saudi manufacturer SFFECO who has a range almost identical in construction to Firebug's that include the 3 & 6 litre mist extinguishers. I've had a client who has safely and effectively used a water mist extinguisher on a live 415v industrial laundry machine fire (after CO2 was ineffective) so it's not all bluff, they are as good as they claim!
