It is so sad to hear about Dean and his wife's loss of their coach and hope that all works out for them..
It brings up a very important question.
Has anyone ever installed the Coldfire automated extinguisher system and if so, what type of experience have you had?

If their fire was from spraying hydraulic oil, it would take a huge system, like fire truck, to contain and put it out. The hyd. oil was everywhere before it burst into flame, then the fire was feed by more oil. Just no way to stop that kind of fire easy. Getting out was the only solution. A suppression system may buy more time to get out, but without a fire truck following, not much hope. Now an electrical fire would be a different animal and more controllable.
My thoughts.

To hear of Dean's lose is really very sad. But it is all replaceable.
