Fire System upgrade
We recently chose to upgrade from FM200 to a Novec 1230 fire suppression system on one of our managed yachts. While this upgrade is not yet mandatory, staying ahead of the curve is a sensible move.
With the EU’s F-Gas Regulations tightening around high-GWP gases, servicing and refilling FM200 systems is already becoming more challenging. Novec 1230 offers an environmentally responsible upgrade with near-zero global warming potential, keeping us future-ready and aligned with the latest standards.
A big thank you to Mar Engineering and Oscar Sierra for a seamless install, both companies did a fantastic job and we’d highly recommend them to any other yacht considering the move from FM200.
This upgrade is about setting our vessels up for long-term safety, sustainability, and success.
