What is the role of the Automist Designer?

Translating the requirements from the brief into an appropriate layout design. 

The design brief must originate from the Client, their Main Contractor, or their appointed Fire Engineer as they are the only participants with the knowledge required of the building and occupancy risks, and the overall Fire Safety Plan and the role that the sprinkler system plays in assuring safety: this responsibility should not be devolved to the Automist Installer.

Once this design brief has been specified the Authorised Installer will create a layout to ensure that the positioning of heads and of pumps is such that it maximises the resilience of Automist and provides full coverage of the area(s) that require protection. Detailed guidance of the layout rules can be found in the Design, Installation and Operation Manual (DIOM).
