What Is Tagon Monitoring Solutions?

The exclusive Canadian distributor for FOGMAKER
The water mist fire suppression system built as an alternative to corrosive dry chemical agents, used across transportation, mining, forestry, and oil and gas operations worldwide.

​Serving industrial clients across Alberta and Saskatchewan alongside gas detection and fall protection equipment, the team brings more than 50 years of combined experience to every hazard protection layout it specifies.

The FOGMAKER Advantage

Most heavy machinery fires start in enclosed spaces like engine compartments, hydraulic bays, or electrical enclosures, going undetected until major damage occurs. Traditional dry chemical systems leave corrosive, abrasive residue that damages components. FOGMAKER deploys high-pressure water mist that cools and smothers fires without damaging hydraulic seals, sensors, or electrical wiring.
​
  • FM 5970 compliant, DOT compliant, UL certified, and approved by FIA
  • No corrosive powder residue in hydraulic, electrical, or engine compartments
  • More than 70,000 systems installed worldwide since 1995

Our End-to-End Safety Process

Operational Risk
​Assessment
We evaluate equipment layouts, fuel sources, and hazard points to identify fire and gas risk before it becomes a loss.
Custom Engineering
​& Design
Systems are engineered around each asset's configuration and fuel load, with full scoping before installation begins.
Certified
​Installation
Installation follows HDME safety standards and manufacturer specifications, covering placement, routing, and integration.
Ongoing Inspection &
​Fluid Renewal
Annual inspection, five-year fluid renewal, and ten-year system service keep coverage active. Total cost of ownership for a new system typically runs $10,000 to $40,000, depending on the equipment.

Regional Expertise & Service

Tagon operates from a warehouse in Okotoks, Alberta, with primary service across Alberta and Saskatchewan. The territory spans oil and gas operations, forestry fleets, municipal transit authorities, and mining and construction sites throughout the region. Being based locally keeps the installation, inspection, and fluid renewal team close to every site across both provinces.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is high-pressure water mist?

A protection method that cools surfaces and displaces oxygen at the point of ignition, without the corrosive residue associated with powder-based systems.

Why is powder-based fire protection less suitable for sensitive equipment?

Powder discharge leaves an abrasive residue across hydraulic, mechanical, and electrical components. Water mist suppresses the same fire without that cleanup, or the long-term wear on seals and sensors.

Can you provide gas and vapour monitoring as well as fire protection?

Yes, though they're separate systems. Tagon installs fixed and portable gas and vapor monitoring equipment that tracks carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulphide, oxygen, and combustible gases, and it can integrate with fire protection equipment on the same site.

What is the maintenance cycle for a FOGMAKER system?

An annual inspection, a five-year fluid renewal, and a complete system service at the ten-year mark. Skipping any of these can void the manufacturer's warranty.

Is the system approved for mining equipment?

Yes. Installations on mining and heavy mobile equipment follow HDME safety standards, accounting for vibration, dust, and the temperature extremes specific to that equipment.

Does Tagon serve all of Western Canada?

Tagon's primary service territory is Alberta and Saskatchewan, operating out of a warehouse in Okotoks, Alberta.
