Why Ultra High Pressure Matters

Enhancing the way firefighters save lives, conserve water, and stay safe — one drop at a time

UHP Overview

What Is Ultra High Pressure Firefighting?

A smarter, safer, and more efficient way to fight fire.

Ultra High Pressure (UHP) firefighting technology is a modern, highly effective approach to fire suppression that operates at pressures of 1,200 PSI or greater. By delivering finely atomized water droplets at extremely high pressure, UHP systems rapidly cool flames, displace oxygen, and reduce radiant heat — allowing firefighters to attack fires more efficiently while using a fraction of the water required by traditional methods. This innovative technology increases safety, minimizes environmental impact, and redefines how departments respond to today’s firefighting challenges.

How Ultra High Pressure Technology Works

Precision engineering designed for real-world response.

UHP systems operate at pressures exceeding 1,200 PSI, producing a mist that absorbs heat more effectively than large water droplets. This process rapidly lowers temperature, minimizes flashover risk, and improves operational safety for firefighters.

Environmental

Why It Matters

A safer, more sustainable future for firefighting.

UHP technology isn’t just about power — it’s about protection. By improving efficiency and reducing water waste, departments can save more lives, preserve property, and protect the environment for future generations.
