5. Kitchens and domes@c appliances
www.bluerad.eu
Other systems cannot reach the back
of domesFc appliances.
Blueproof TM can easily be located and
operate from there.
Kitchen fires are dangerous as they
burn through the ceiling voids*. It also
houses a plenFful stock of
combusFbles.
Once acFvated Blueproof TM lowers
the smoke levels and may have saved
the life of a vicFm who was found dead
in her bedroom in her home owned by
a housing associaFon in Birmingham.
Ref: Birmingham Mail 16 Feb 2016
Once Blueproof TM acFvates the spray
hits the surface of the burning item
and vapourises to blanket and suppress
the fire.

6. Which? execuFve director Richard Lloyd said: "More needs to be done
to protect consumers from this risk and it is crucial that products known
to be dangerous are recalled as quickly as possible."
www.bluerad.eu
Water is already available at the rear of
domesFc appliances.
On exposure to fire Blueproof TM forms
a nozzle on its surface and releases the
water into the fire.
Sited in the vapour space above the
liquid level it does not calcify or gather
magneFte parFcles that may block it.
In terms of Risk 1.Washing machines
2. tumble dryers, 3. dishwashers

Typical pipe fi]ngs to house
Blueproof TM from a plumber’s
merchant.
Blueproof TM must be kept upright
to maintain the air gap within.
It will also operate from plasFc
pipe assembly's.
An adapter to house Blueproof TM
and screw onto the back is under
development.
