Educational & CommunityFire Alarms
In the event of an emergency, saving the people inside the building is extremely important. Vacating a smaller building is not much of an issue, but things get complicated when dealing with a multi-story structure that has several rooms, such as a school or a community centre. Vacating a building can be necessary in crisis times, and having the essential equipment to deal with the emergency is imperative.
One of the most common disasters that can happen in a building is a fire. Fire safety equipment includes fire extinguishers, emergency lights, and fire alarm systems. The latter can be highly instrumental in ensuring all the occupants’ safety and safe evacuation if needed. In schools and community centres, saving time in detecting fire is even more critical as the occupants include very young children and elders who may not manoeuvre effectively.
Disabled Toilet Alarms
These alarm systems are specially installed in the toilet facilities for the disabled. In case a person is stuck in the washroom in a time of emergency or needs assistance, a button or a chord is installed that can be pulled to trigger an alarm. This alarm is placed at the reception or in the security department of the building. This system was not necessarily introduced for fire safety but can prove very useful at that time as well.
Benefits of Fire Alarm Systems
The prime objective of fire alarms is to detect the fire as soon as possible. Without an alarm, spreading the news about the fire and conveying the need to evacuate can cost the occupants of the building precious time to either escape the building or alert the authorities. A fire alarm quickly alerts all occupants to vacate the building by taking less time in alerting the firefighters, who can come and take control of the fire before it spreads to an uncontrollable level. This can be critical in saving lives as most elderly residents of a community centre need to be rescued in time.
Fire alarm systems can be coupled with firefighting equipment such as water sprinklers and emergency lighting to inhibit further the fire’s spread and help occupants exit the building safely. Emergency lighting also doubles as guides for firefighters to know their way around the building.
