What is a Gaseous Fire Suppression System?
A gaseous fire suppression system is a specialised fire protection solution designed to extinguish fires without using water, making it ideal for data centres, electrical panels, commercial kitchens, and manufacturing facilities. These systems use inert gases or chemical agents to suppress fires by either displacing oxygen, disrupting combustion, or cooling heat sources.
NPHS is a fully trained and approved installer of Cease Fire gaseous fire suppression systems, offering industry-leading solutions that ensure rapid, reliable fire suppression with minimal downtime and no water damage.

The Science Behind Gaseous Fire Protection
Unlike traditional water-based systems, Ceasefire gaseous fire suppression systems use advanced inert gases and chemical agents to suppress fires efficiently.
There are two main types of gaseous suppression agents:
- Inert Gases (Nitrogen, Argon, Carbon Dioxide) – These reduce oxygen levels to a safe but non-combustible concentration.
- Chemical Agents (FM-200, Novec 1230) – These interrupt the combustion process and rapidly cool the fire source.
Why Ceasefire Gaseous Suppression is Effective:
- Immediate Fire Suppression with minimal disruption
- No Electrical Damage due to water exposure.
- Safe For Enclosed Spaces with controlled ventilation.

Fire Protection for High-Risk Cooking Environments
Commercial kitchens operate with high temperatures, open flames, and flammable oils, making them one of the most fire-prone environments. Traditional water-based suppression can cause more harm than good by spreading grease fires rather than extinguishing them.
Why Cease Fire is the Best Choice for Commercial Kitchens:
- Designed for Cooking Environments – Effectively suppresses grease and gas fires.
- Non-Damaging Suppression – Prevents kitchen downtime and appliance damage.
- Compliant with UK Standards – Meets BS 5306-8 recommendations.
