Your ears were ringing, as if loud sirens were going off and you were unable to turn them off. Your eyes cracked open, just barley noticing you were now in a different room. you were on the floor in Carlos' arms as he gently shook you awake. His voice made apparent to your ears, his lips were right next to your ear. You winced when you felt a sharp tingle shoot straight between your thighs.
"You're alive.. God, you had me worried there for a second" Carlos let out a nervous breath as he studied you like a hawk, you're facial expressions, body movements.
"Carlos.." you rasp, your eyes finally zeroing in on him. You begin to think, when was he so attractive? The way his hair looked so soft, almost covering those beautiful brown eyes that bore into yours. your fingers ached to touch it, play with it.
The sight of his large biceps buldging out of his shirt made you suppress a low moan, rubbing your thighs together in a pitifully attempt to aid the growing ache between them. You were practically drooling over your partner.
Your flushed face and heated gaze must have been a sign to Carlos that the mist had infected you with something. And he was about to find out, you were already burning up quickly, as if you were on fire. Stray hair stuck to your skin and your clothes were plastered with sweat, and it was difficult to ignore the increasingly noticeable slick building in your core.
"you feelin' okay? Any pain or discomfort? Christ, you're burnin' up" he commented with a hand pressed to your forehead, Carlos fortunately recognised what that flower had done to you - taught to him in training, the plant had aphrodisiac properties. Luring prey in with the sweet aroma and spraying them with the substance in self defense. He swallowes thickly as he had an idea of what was about to happen
He knew that If the substance wasn't flushed from your system soon, it would send your body into overdrive with the intense hormones it was creating and cause your heart to stop. Your heart as a ticking time bomb.
He had to fuck you, or you'd die.
Every fibre inside of you was screaming at you to pounce on him, ride him until you could no more, you needed to satisfy the involuntary carnal urges you had developed. The heat that had pooled in your pussy was getting unbearable, you desperately clenched around nothing. You were just begging to be stuffed, to have something to clamp down on.
He called your name once more,
Instead of answering him verbally, today you decided actions spoke louder than words,
Without warning, you smushed your lips against his, the force causing him to fall back against the wall and you situating yourself in his lap.
You moaned against his lips as you locked them with yours deeply. fingertips tangled in his hair, just as soft as you imagined. The other hand decided to place itself on his stubbled jaw.
It was like you were in heaven from just a kiss, he grunted as your tongue slid into his mouth, feeling his. A whimper melted into the kiss at the taste of him, you felt like an animal. Wild, uncontrollable, you just wanted to eat him alive.
It felt like the edge was just about being scratched off, which provided some clarity when you managed to pull yourself away from him, which you mentally cursed at the loss of his lips. Enough clarity to realise what situation you were in.
That was when you lock eyes with Carlos, his lips slightly parted in suprise as he panted in your face and his cheeks dusted in a light pink
Fuck, what did you just do? Your face felt hot, the gnawing feeling of shaming creeping up on you.
"oh..oh fuck Carlos- I'm- I couldn't-" you stutter waiting for him to push you off and abandon you in this building and probably never talk to you again. Your eyes are screwed shut, waiting for it to happen.
Instead, he brought his hand to the side of your face, pulling you closer with your lips just millimeters apart, coaxing you to open your eyes. "We both know what that damn plants' done to you. You need this, need to get it out of your system'
his eyes were soft and understanding, letting you press your face into the hand on it. It felt a moment of comfort, that was quickly ruined by the burning arousal wrecking havoc over you. Your brows furrowed as you whined, hips jerking against his, gasping when you felt your poor clit bump into the growing bulge in Carlos' pants.
Carlos seemed to understand as he pulled you back in for another searing kiss, his free hand making work of your belt and slipping into your pants.
The rough pads of his fingers found your clit, teasing the poor, swollen bud in quick circles. It throbbed and ached even with the small bit of relief you were being given. You break the kiss to let out a moan, everything felt a thousand times for sensitive than usual. Your hips bucked at the pleasure, hands gripping at his shirt.
"easy now, pretty girl, we'll fuck out whatevers in your system" he purred in your ear. his deep, rough voice make you clench around nothing once again.
"Carlos- please, I can't-"
You were cut off by a sharp moan as two of his thick fingers circled your slick hole. You gasped and moaned as they filled you up so nicely, with a cry out stuffed your head against the crook of his neck. His scent drove you wild as your eyes rolled back in bliss.
Your head tips back, exposing the column of your neck. Carlos swiftly attached his lips to it, pressing wet, sloppy kisses along your throat. Your hand snaked it's way into his hair again, gently tugging at the roots. He groaned at the sensation before continuing with his action. He occasionally left butterfly kisses as he worked his way down, your moans going straight to his cock.
It felt like your head was full of cotton, brain reduced to a gooey mess oozing out your ears as he quickly found the spot that had you clenching down and producing more slick, running down his wrist.
Your ears burnt with embarrassment as the obscene squelches made themselves known every time his fingers pumped in and out of your slick hole.
With every curl of his fingers, he hit that spot, it had your toes curling and your vision blurring. You couldn't help but notice the delicious flex of his muscles, the way his bicep strained against his shirt. You were almose drooling at the thought of biting it.
His thumb pressed itself against your clit again, breaking you out of your thoughts and earning a needy, desperate keen from you. The coil in the pit of your stomach was tightening so fast, you couldn't control yourself and the noises that were so easily forced out of you.
"that's it, let it all out" he murmured against your skin. his voice was enough to make you squirt on the spot
"ohmygod ohmygod I'm gonna-"
The hand in his hair tightened as the other one gripped his back, your blunt nails threatened to sink into his skin.
With a few more jabs of his fingers, that became a reality. Blinding bliss encased you as you drenched his fingers and the fabric of your pants. It wasn't long before the white like that spotted your vision began to dissapear.
You moan in relief, a part of the burning fire inside you had been doused. The warm hand rubbing up and down your back soothingly was what helped you return to reality. But it still wasn't enough, even when you were slumped against him.
"i need..I need.."
he shushes you as the clink of his belt buckle is noticed, shucking down his pants and boxers enough to free his cock. Just the sight of it had you pulsing and aching all over again, it looked so big, so perfect. It was exactly what you'd been craving so much.
''I know what you need, gonna make it all better" he presses a kiss to your lips before lowering you onto your back, the cool tile felt soothing against your burning skin
He fully pulled your pants off, running his hands across your inner thighs before pulling them apart, exposing you to his gaze.
'ready?" He asked, his eyes meeting yours. You nod frantically the need to be stuffed by his fat cock growing by the second
"yes, m' ready" You responded, still recovering from the first orgasm he had given you.
your eyes shot open as the head of him began to press inside of you. A long, drawn out moan spilled from your lips as you gripped his shoulders. His cock stretched your hole out so beautifully, any pain quickly turned into absolute bliss.
His hips were flush against yours, with his cock nestled deep inside of you, pressing up against that sweet spot inside of you. You immediately tightened around him, your body begging him not to let go. He let out a deep moan that had butterflies erupting in your stomach
Carlos was letting you adjust to his size, but you had another plans as you wiggled your hips and whined
"carlos- please move- need it so bad"
Your brows were furrowed, hair sticking to your forehead with sweat, and your bottom lip jutted out in a needy look.
When he gave in, your eyes were rolled back and your spine arched in the mind numbing ecstacy that took over your body. His thrusts hit spots you had no idea existed, they were hard and deep. You clung to him, legs tightening around his waist and your hands wrapping around his back, nails digging into the skin through his shirt.
your entire body pulsed and writhed with pure ecstacy. Your hips met his with every thrust, the patch of dark curls at the base of him catching your poor pearl each time.
Carlos planted both hands at the side of your head before leaning down and sandwiching your bodies together. He mouthed at your neck once more. You were sure your throat was going to be sore with all the keens that were being wretched from you.
His lips met yours once more, this time it was messy and desperate. You let your noises travel into the kiss and drool slip down the corners of your mouth. His lips felt good on yours, too good.
You could once again feel the intense burn of an approaching orgasm build up again, your body beginning to tremble and twitch. Carlos felt the same feeling, his dick throbbing and twitching inside of you.
"i-i think I'm-" you squealed, clamping down on him so tightly that he let out a throaty moan in response, your back arched against his broad chest as your breath became laboured and your chest heaved, mouth wide open
"c'mon, let go, do it. Right now" he rasped against your lips.
You smash your lips against his for the final time, drenching his cock and your thighs with a loud moan and your eyes rolled back into your skull, only the whites visible
He was right behind you, begining to lose his rhythm and replacing it with a sloppy, desperate rhythm to reach his own end with his grunts and groans becoming more frequent and breathy. You were sure you heard a whimper in there too.
"fuck- oh fuck-"
With a grunt he emptied himself inside of you, filling you impossibly full with his come. it made you moan in delight and relief, you could finally relax without the ache between your legs and the possibility your heart could explode. Dying from being too horny would've been embarrassing.
You felt limp and he followed you, almost crushing you with his weight. The soft tuffs of his hair tickled against your face, making your huff in amusement
After a moment, Carlos breaks the silence
"damn, might need to use that plant more often if this is the outcome"
You smacked him upside the head
"Carlos !"
The report you'd have to fill in after this mission was going to be awkward, that was for sure.

Cyn Crawling in the Dark.
POV: You are N. Slimy things hold you to the floor. All you can move is your head. You look up and see this.
It's an illustration for a scene in my fanfic "Skyclad for Big Brother", a bio-horror comedy action human AU. Might as well post the relevant excerpt.
"Can I have the tentacles back?" Cyn asked. "Cyn, what!?" N cried out. "They make things more atmospheric," Cyn explained. "And what's that supposed to mean!?" "There were books. With pictures." "That doesn't tell me anything!" "More importantly, as I said, you can't properly wield your body and the tentacles at the same time," the phone voice said. "Eyeroll. Then amplify and correct my commands. In return, I'll let you puppet me for a bit." "That's acceptable. What are you thinking, Cyn?" N didn't like the way Cyn smiled. Or how she closed her eyes to commune with the thing inside her head. "I like that a lot, Cyn," the voice said. N didn't like the sound of that at all. The light of the phone dimmed, then started flickering. Suddenly, the fire suppression systems activated, spraying blueish retardant into the twilit room. Cyn opened her eyes. Through shifting clouds of mist, all N could make out were Cyn's blazing yellow orbs. She dropped to the ground and began crawling forward. As she drew near, the faint shadows of tentacles loomed out of the darkness around her. The tentacle holding her phone must have migrated behind Cyn, because her phone's light brightened, backlighting Cyn and the host of tentacles fanning out around her.

It starts as a pretty typical shift, which, honestly, should’ve been his first warning.
They’re responding to a fire at an upscale health and fertility clinic. The sprinkler system’s already taken care of any flames but that hadn’t stopped the people inside from trampling over each other in their hurry to evacuate; he doesn’t envy Chim, Hen, or Eddie at all, watching the three of them struggle to wrangle a crowd of hysterical pregnant people and their partners into some semblance of order.
Which leaves Buck to do a final sweep of the building for any stragglers.
He’s checking the storage area tucked in the back when he opens a door and is hit with a face full of some kind of… mist?
It's sticky and cloying—almost like a perfume, maybe, but with a bitter edge—and his eyes start tearing up immediately, sinuses stinging. He wipes his face with the sleeve of his uniform, and that seems to help some, but he’s definitely gonna need a shower and a change of clothes when they get back to the station.
“Buckley to Cap,” he calls over the radio. “We’re all clear inside.”
“Copy that,” Bobby responds. “Meet back outside, we’ll regroup.”
He’s outside chatting with Munroe from Squad 4 when things suddenly shift.
Buck staggers on the spot, hot and hazy with it, something sharp tingling behind his teeth. His vision is swirling, his mouth painfully dry.
He blinks once, then twice, then swallows hard.
“—okay? Your whole face has gone red, man.”
“I’m—“ Buck tries. When the fuck did it so hot? “It’s—“
“Do you need to sit down?” Munroe asks, reaching out to steady him. “I can help you over to the curb—“
Buck bats the hand away, bristling at the contact. “No, no, I’m good, I just got dizzy for a second—“
A growl cuts through the air behind him, fierce and furious. Monroe startles, his eyes wide, but it’s like Buck’s entire spine softens, tension seeping away as if it was never there.
He’s certain before he even turns. “Eddie.”
“What’s wrong?” Eddie demands, and his hands land on Buck’s shoulders, then shift up to cup his jaw, his eyes darting over every inch of his face. Buck relaxes into his hold, something about Eddie’s touch soothing a part of him that he didn’t know needed soothing. “Why do you— What happened?”
“What happened with what?” Buck mumbles, ducking down until he can rest his forehead against Eddie’s shoulder.
This quickly proves to be the best idea ever because Jesus Christ, since when did Eddie smell so fucking good? His scent washes over him—rich, decadent even, like the darkest of dark chocolate with just a hint of something spicy underneath—and it’s mouthwatering, it’s addicting, and Buck leans closer, desperate for more.
“You smell really good,” Buck informs him—just in case Eddie didn’t know, because he’s helpful like that. He rubs his cheek against Eddie’s neck, then nuzzles against his jaw, the rough edge of his stubble prickling deliciously against his skin. “Like, so fucking good.”
Eddie makes a noise that’s halfway between a laugh and a groan and his arms curl around his waist, strong and steady.
“I smell good?” he asks, incredulous. “I smell— Buck, I can smell you clear from the other side of the building.”
“No, you can’t,” Buck disagrees. “‘M on suppressants. My scent’s all…” He drags the tip of his nose along Eddie’s hairline, then presses his mouth to his temple, breathing him in. “Subtle. Muted. Though, there was a study back in 2017 that found that excessive suppressant use can sometimes lead to this weird condition that makes everything smell and taste like coconut, but to be honest, their sample size left a lot to be desired—“
“No, Buck,” Eddie interrupts, in a voice like sandpaper. “I can definitely smell you.”
“Oh.” Buck considers this for a moment. “What do I smell like?”
Eddie makes another one of those noises—low and throaty and a little pained—and his hands splay wide over his lower back.
“Chim!” he calls over his shoulder. “Chim, I need you over here!”
“Eddie,” Buck whines. “You didn’t answer me.” A horrible thought occurs to him, and his voice wobbles when he asks, “Do I smell bad?”
“Trágame, tierra,” Eddie mutters under his breath. Louder, he says, “No, querido, you don’t smell bad. You smell…”
Eddie pauses a second too long. Buck pulls back to look at him, a little afraid of what he’ll find, but Eddie’s eyes are dark and hooded, those brown eyes smoldering like embers. His nostril flare as he takes in another deep inhale, and his gaze turns heated, turns hungry.
Buck’s breath hitches in his throat.
“Good,” Eddie finishes hoarsely. “Really good.”

"So, you're saying it's still alive in there?"
"That's the theory, anyway. I believe the purpose of the patron firearm system is to provide reinforcement of the Law. But I feel that there is no point in seeking it out at this stage, at least not for me."
"Ezell..."
"There's only one way to be sure." Gesturing across the table, the Sankta gestures at the disassembled shotgun, kindly smiling towards the Doctor. "Now, which part of the firearm contains the fragment of God?"
_ _ _
The empty laboratory clicks open with barely a hiss, thanks to the clever use of a magnet at the top and bottom. It's stupid, you know? All of this technology for monitoring these top secret projects defeated with something a child has decent odds of keeping around as a curiosity. W chuckles to herself as she quickly shuts the door behind her, slipping in. A handheld light clicks on as she surveys the room. Her eyes widen.
*Well, well*, she thinks. *Guess I'll be adding this to my collection next.*
Reaching across the table, she starts to reassemble the firearm beginning with its smallest pieces. But as she moves to affix the firing pin, a curious thought strikes her as though from afar-
*YOU'LL DO.*
There's an explosion like the report of a firearm, and then nothing.
- - -
She comes to some time later, the mist of the fire suppression system making her vision hazy. Of course it's that damn Doctor in their stupid idiot mask. Must've been some kind of intruder countermeasure. She squints against the light, eyes trying to adjust. "Ugh... could you shut that damn thing off? It's getting in my eyes."
The Doctor gives a look of concern, brow furrowing detectable even through the darkness of their mask. "...no," they say, carefully and diplomatically.
"I get it, okay? I'm in the damn doghouse. Just shut that thing off or at LEAST turn it down."
The Doctor pulls out a compact mirror, flipping it open with one hand, and shows W her own reflection. She squints against the glare a moment before her eyes widen.
The lights are not on in this room. The only source of illumination is coming from just above W's brow, with more behind her splaying out. She flexes her shoulder back as she grabs the compact in wonderment and shock, and she sees the wing behind flex also, it's fragmentary components splaying out like fingers widening from a fist.
"Uh oh."

Red Birthright - Chapter 4
Miorine shuffled back. Even over the alarms and chaos and fire, her boots sounded loud, too loud. Her heart too, hammered in her ears. Her short hair was plastered to the back of her neck with sweat. The armor was smothering but it was holding back the worst of the noxious fumes as the station burned. And then Suletta looked up from where she knelt in front of the black figure of her mother. She looked into Miorine’s eyes and Miorine looked into hers and Miorine saw chaos and fire in there, too. She saw the subtle shift in Suletta’s balance. Then, she charged, igniting her saber as she rushed Miorine down. Miorine activated her shield projector as Suletta closed the distance, her blue shield met the red saber and amid the shower of sparks from their collision, Miorine was pushed back. She saw a brief flash of Suletta’s face lit in a harsh light. She saw grief transformed into rage. Pointing her pistol upward , Miorine fired at an exposed pipe overhead that was feeding into the fire suppression system. It burst over her and Suletta, spilling out a fine gray mist that glowed with the alarm lights. Suletta staggered back, Miorine leaned back and activated her jet pack, letting it hold her up as it pushed away, putting space between them. Suletta deactivated her lightsaber, but before Miorine could entertain ideas of the fight having ended she watched Suletta rear back, raising both her hands, fingers outstretched like claws. She swung them downward and the mist curled before her as if caught in a great vortex. A vortex bearing down on Miorine. As it stormed towards her, debris and bodies in its path were drawn into it and flung away. The deck trembled and broke beneath it. She dodged to the side, using her jets again, so narrowly that she felt something grasp at the edge of one boot like it could draw her into the maelstrom of destructive energy. It impacted against the bulkhead and the elevator door behind her with such power that the metal peeled away like the skin of a fruit. Sparks showered as the battered elevator car crumpled and then hurtled down the shaft. A possible escape, but before Miorine could use it Suletta was on her again. She raised one hand and the Force took Miorine, her arms and legs lashed tightly together. Then Suletta whipped her hand down and Miorine was flung to the deck with jarring strength.

What You Don’t Know About Your Fire Suppression System in Singapore Could Cost You
When it is a matter of fire safety, what you do not know can definitely hurt you—your business, your employees, and your peace of mind. Most building owners and facilities managers take it for granted that their fire systems are in top condition to operate when called upon. But the reality is this: without ongoing inspection, maintenance, and compliance checks, your fire suppression system in Singapore will fail at the worst possible moment.
Singapore's high fire safety standards are for a good reason. Fires will spread in the matter of seconds, and whether your fire suppression system in Singapore works or not may be the difference between an incident and an all-out catastrophe. If you're not in the process of reviewing or checking your system regularly, you're taking an expensive gamble.
Learning About the Fire Suppression System in Singapore
A Singapore fire suppression system is more than sprinklers or extinguishers. It's an entire setup comprised of detection, control, and extinguishing components. These systems are designed to act promptly once a fire has begun—usually before anybody notices anything amiss.
From gas-based systems to water mist and foam systems, all of these solutions are specific to various environments. Commercial kitchens, server rooms, and manufacturing plants all need different solutions. For instance, the installation of a kitchen fire suppression system Singapore is specifically made to address oil and grease fires that water cannot put out.
But most companies install a system and then forget about it. Eventually, that neglect causes corrosion, mechanical failure, and even legal non-compliance.
Oversights That Can Cost You
Too frequently, business owners think their system is functioning just because it hasn't been tested in a while—or worse, because it hasn't had to engage. That's not sufficient. Professional checks on a regular basis guarantee your fire suppression system in Singapore is pressurized, correctly connected, and fault-free.
Other typical problems are:
Blocked nozzles or discharged cylinders
Control panel faults
Outdated or expired parts
Insufficient coverage for new floor plans or layouts
All these problems might lead to delayed or unsuccessful fire suppression in a real emergency.
The Secret Killer in Kitchens
If you're in the hospitality or F&B business, then kitchen fire suppression Singapore should be at the top of your list of safety concerns. Grease fires travel faster than most folks think, and water-based systems won't assist—actually, they can exacerbate the situation.
An installed and serviced kitchen fire suppression system Singapore solution deploys a chemical agent that instantly suppresses fires and cools hot surfaces, shutting off fuel sources immediately. Without such a system—or with one that is not serviced on a regular basis—your kitchen is a time bomb waiting to happen.
Compliance and Peace of Mind
In Singapore, having a fire suppression system isn’t just a recommendation—it’s a requirement. The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) mandates strict compliance with fire safety codes. Failing to comply can lead to heavy fines, legal action, or being forced to close your business.
That is why maintenance, testing, and documentation by regular inspections is crucial. Through a certified provider, your Singapore fire suppression system is always within compliance, as well as that your SCDF submissions are reliable and current.
One of these trusted suppliers is Drakofire, who have assisted many companies in maintaining compliance and being fire-safe. When experts perform the maintenance on your fire suppression system in Singapore, you know every part of it is performing precisely as designed.
How Often Should You Inspect Your System?
SCDF regulations and industry best practices recommend at least yearly inspections of all fire suppression systems in Singapore, with quarterly or even monthly inspections for some high-risk areas. Kitchens, industrial plants, and IT facilities are only a few locations where more frequent checks are necessary.
Ensure that your system is inspected by licensed technicians familiar with local codes, unique equipment types, and the distinct dangers of your setup.
Don't Wait for a Wake-Up Call
Every fire safety tale you hear following a serious incident shares one common element: warning signs were ignored. Don't make your building the next warning story. By putting your fire suppression system in Singapore first, you're safeguarding your property, people, and business continuity.
Whether you have a restaurant, commercial office, or industrial building, having your fire suppression system in Singapore inspected today might save tomorrow's tragedy. It's not about being compliant—it's about being truly ready.
And if you're not sure where to start, businesses like Drakofire can offer a no-obligation quote and first consultation to determine the status of your system.
Final Thoughts
The reliability of your fire suppression system in Singapore is one thing you must never bet against. Be well-informed, be compliant, and above all—be safe. Book your system inspection today and make sure that when temperatures heat up, your defense will be in place.

Fire Doesn’t Wait—Install the Right Fire Suppression System in Singapore Today
A blink of an eye is all it takes. That's how fast it might be for a spark to become an infernal fire. In a home kitchen, office pantry, or industrial factory, fire waits for no man. That is why fitting the right fire suppression system in Singapore isn't only wise—it is critical.
Singapore's congested infrastructure, skyscrapers, and densely developed commercial districts make fire safety a strict necessity for all building owners. And while alarms and extinguishers are crucial, they're always a step behind. A fire suppression system in Singapore acts in seconds—smothering flames, depriving them of oxygen, and keeping catastrophe at bay before it has a chance to propagate.
What Is a Fire Suppression System?
A Singapore fire suppression system is comprised of fire fighting equipment and safety technology which will detect and extinguish the fire at the first sign. They are installed to automatically spring into action utilizing water mist, chemicals, or inert gases depending on the source and location of the fire danger.
Unlike traditional sprinklers that can cause water damage, fire suppression systems are more precise and specific to the environment they protect—especially in high-risk areas like server rooms, restaurants, or factories.
Why Singapore Needs Reliable Fire Suppression Systems
The design of Singapore's cities enables fires to easily spread and engulf several stories of a building. It is therefore crucial to have a fire suppression system in Singapore that is efficient, minimizes the loss, and safeguards property and lives.
From hotels and hospitals to office buildings and commercial kitchens, each of these places has a set of fire hazards unique to them. It is because of this that increasing numbers of companies are taking the smart move of investing in tailor-made solutions such as the kitchen fire suppression system Singapore restaurants are turning to in order to be protected and SCDF-compliant. 
Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems: A Critical Investment
If you have a restaurant or commercial kitchen, you're working with open flames, hot oils, and electrical appliances—some of the leading sources of fires. A Singapore kitchen fire suppression system is engineered to address grease fires and hot temperature flare-ups, shutting off the fuel source and cooling the area rapidly.
These systems are not only required in most commercial kitchens but can actually be the difference between a minor incident and catastrophe disaster. Specialized companies like Drakofire provide up-to-date solutions for kitchen environments to provide protection all around.
Choosing the Right Fire Suppression System in Singapore
Not all fire risks are equal—and not all systems are built the same. Your environment, fire hazard type, and operations dictate the correct fire suppression system in Singapore.
These are what to consider:
Environment: Server room, kitchen, warehouse, or office?
Fire risk class: Electrical, grease, chemical, or general?
Activation needs: Manual, automatic, or remotely initiated systems?
Compliance: SCDF and insurance compliant?
Maintenance: Are you able to have regular checks by a credible service provider?
With a credible brand like Drakofire, you can be assured to receive professional advice and a working solution when you need it the most.
Advantages of Having a Fire Suppression System in Singapore
Not yet convinced? Here's why having a fire suppression system in Singapore is a no-brainer:
Quick response: Knocks out the fire at the source within seconds
Automatic response: No need for human intervention during an emergency
Minimum damage: Inhibits fire extension and reduces smoke or water damage
Regulatory compliance: Complies with local fire safety codes
Peace of mind: You sleep peacefully knowing your system is always prepared
Particularly in high-value or high-hazard applications, the investment is justified.
Maintenance Matters
After installation, your Singapore fire suppression system needs regular servicing. A malfunctioning sensor or clogged nozzle can kill. That is why there are regular checks, testing, and servicing involved.
Most property owners sign up for long-term contracts with providers such as Drakofire so their systems will always be in spotless working condition. Do maintenance on a regular basis and you'll never be left high and dry.
Last Words: Don't Let Fire Make the First Move
Fire will not knock. Fire will not ask. Fire will attack quickly, and the destruction can be unrelenting. If you own a restaurant, office, hospital, or even a house, your greatest protection is an offense. Owning a fire suppression system in Singapore isn't about safety—it's about responsibility. It protects your people, your property, your future.
