There is no mandate in the U.S. to replace Halon systems. It is a good practice to consider replacing or upgrading any existing Halon system even if you haven’t had a discharge. Halon is no longer being produced. However, in some cases, your existing Halon system can be recharged using reclaimed (used) gas. As the existing Halon supply is being used the cost of reclaimed gas is expected to increase exponentially with the demand. Healey Fire Protection can review your existing Halon System to develop a budgetary proposal for replacement with an appropriate clean agent system.
