FAQ ~ Smoke Protection

How is the smoke produced?

To produce a thick cloud of dense smoke, it uses harmless glycol, which in its essence is heat absorbed by fluid. Glycol steams at a lower temperature than water. When a smoke generator is activated, glycol is heated enough to create steam, then combined with water, which has a cooling effect on the glycol steam but does not affect its density. The principle is also used in theatres and discos to produce "smoke".

Is the smoke dangerous for people and animals?

NO

The dense smoke is completely harmless. The smoke is created using the same principles as are used for smoke machines in theatres and discos.

Can the smoke damage buildings, furnishings and other objects?

No, the smoke is completely harmless - also to computer equipment, optics, precious metals, clothing and furs. This has been proven by tests conducted by the Danish Technological Institute and through daily use by several retailers.

Does the smoke smell?

NO

Smoke does not smell - it only reduces visibility and does not leave any type of taste or smell. This means that the rooms can be used again as soon as they have been aired.

How do I get rid of the smoke?

Even though the smoke is so dense that a burglar will not be able to see his hand in front of his face, it only takes about 20 min. of airing to clear the room. Afterwards, you will not be able to tell that the smoke protection system has been activated. It is important that airing is begun within one hour of activating the smoke generator.

Couldn't the burglars have just waited for the smoke to clear?

It is designed to re-activate several times in the event of multiple break-ins, continuing to replenish protection in covered areas. Considering it takes half an hour to regain any visibility in a non-ventilated area, burglars are unlikely to stick around until first responders arrive.

Can you install smoke protection as the only protection system?

Smoke protection is a supplement to a conventional alarm system, which also activates the smoke generator. Apart from this, the most important thing is to safeguard your business or your home to make it hard for the thief to steal from the proptey*.

But it can be added to another alarm companyies* system and can be added standalone in some envirments* we always link it to a little small system to control the confirmed elements and to make sure it doesnt actviate* without cause*

Why should companies that already own alarm systems be interested in smoke systems?

Smoke provides the final link to securing valuable property. When the system is activated, Protect cloaks any area to a degree burglars cannot see what they intend to steal, accounting for those critical moments between alarm activation and alarm response.
