No Big deal is involved in a Halon discharge. We had one here (accidental) abou
t a year ago. Workmen discharged some freon from the air conditioning unit in t
he machine room. The freon triggered the ion sensors and whammo! Big noise, loo
se papers blew all over the place. As a precaution pregnant women outside the m
achine room were sent home. Other than papers flying all over the place no othe
r physical damage was done. Cost us $2000 to refill the Halon tank.
