Hello folks!
Do any of you have a fire supression system in your engine bay? What are you thoughtrs on them? I'm considering getting one for my new coach.

I do not have a MH, haven't had one for many years. I suggest you visit Fire and Life Safety if you wish to read further into MH fires and preventative measures. He has an engine bay fire suppression system for almost any vehicle.
Some of our MH owners will be along shortly. Hopefully they will have more information. Mac gives a great seminar at our annual rallies- hint, hint.

We have a suppression "system" installed. It does provide a little peace of mind. The link in Ray,IN's post is probably the guy we bought it from...........his name was Mac. Pretty easy to install. We also have an automatic extinguisher in the back of the reefer.

KIX, with all the reefer recalls going on I might elect to install the system behind our frig too.
