Keeping You Safe:

Fire alarm systems are essential for protecting lives and property. They act as the first line of defence in a fire emergency, alerting occupants to danger and giving them time to evacuate safely. Here’s a breakdown of what fire alarm systems are, how they work, and the different types available.

Different Types of Fire Alarm Systems

Fire alarm systems come in different configurations to suit various building needs. Here are some common types:

• Conventional Fire Alarm Systems: These are the most basic systems, with all devices wired directly to the FACP. While simple, they offer limited information about the location of the fire.
• Addressable Fire Alarm Systems: These systems use intelligent devices that communicate their location to the FACP. This allows for a more targeted response and easier identification of the fire’s origin.
• Wireless Fire Alarm Systems: These systems use radio signals to connect devices to the FACP. They offer greater flexibility for installation but may be susceptible to interference.
