The Hiller Companies

GASEOUS & WATER-BASED SUPPRESSION
Clean Agents

Hiller Companies can design, sell and install and service fire suppression systems in commercial, industrial, hazardous, and the marine and government/military markets.

We work with architects, consultants or end users to determine the most cost-effective approach, providing for both life safety and equipment protection and meeting the pertinent regulations. The Hiller companies can provide full installation of the equipment, including necessary wiring, or simply provide the final termination, checkout and ongoing maintenance and support.

Perhaps you need a central alarm panel to monitor other systems such as gaseous suppression, or water detection. Whatever the case, we can design, install, and service a system to meet your needs. Our NICET certified engineers are able to design systems tailored to your specifications, often exceeding your expectations. Our experienced alarm technicians are able to service systems from the most out-dated to the most advanced. We are trained and certified to represent several of the leading System Manufacturers.

Halon Replacement -
Technical/cost studies on the available alternative fire suppression technologies to replace Halon in existing installations are available through Hiller Companies. Contact us!

We supply and install systems using various methods of suppression:

Gaseous Suppression Systems

Fire Suppression
The fire suppression systems can utilize not only water sprinklers, but non-toxic chemicals such as FM-200, inerting gases such as Inergen™ and CO-2, foam, dry chemical or combinations of systems. Fires are suppressed in Computer Rooms, Telecommunication Facilities, Clean Room Wet Benches and Tools, Aircraft Hangers, Kitchen Hoods, Dust Collectors, Machinery, Military and Commercial Ship Engine Rooms, and Aircraft hangers ... and more.

Hiller Companies can supply the following agents: clean agents, dry chemical, wet chemical and inert gases. These can be in semi-portable units or fixed systems. We can also provide replacement parts: o-rings, seals and burst discs to name a few. And Hiller Companies can also engineer, install and service most fire pumps. Contact us for service and parts for your particular unit.

Water-based Suppression Systems

Water Mist
Water mist is a natural, non-toxic, efficient, and widely applicable system. This risk-specific solution is a fine water spray mist that offers effective protection without the deluge and damage of traditional water-based systems. Securiplex water mist systems are not only approved for total flooding applications, but are the only water mist system that are approved by Factory Mutual for local application of spot hazard protection.

This type of localized protection is utilized on the following applications:

• Turbine bearings
• Oil filled transformers
• Lube oil tanks
• Motor/generator sets
• Localized class B flammable liquids hazards

The FIRE-SCOPE® 2000 Water Mist System

• Operates at a low pressure of 75-85 psig
• Low water discharge
• Highly Effective extinguishment
• Environmentally friendly and safe for personnel

Fire Sprinkler Systems

People, businesses and institutions throughout the United States and Canada rely on Hiller Companies for fire sprinkler systems. Our geographic coverage, experience, and cost-effective performance have made us a large sprinkler installation and service provider in North America.

With capabilities that extend to every type of fire sprinkler and special hazards suppression system, we continue to build on our heritage as the leader in fire and life safety. No project is too large or small.
