Fire Alarms
Fire Alarms in Horsham
A working fire alarm system gives early warning of fire, saves lives and limits damage to property, and for most businesses, landlords and managing agents it is a legal requirement. The right system depends on the size of the building, how it is used and the budget.
Conventional systems suit smaller premises. They give a reliable early warning, cost less, and are quick to install and easy to maintain.
Wireless or radio systems suit small and medium projects. They are popular in listed buildings because they need no cabling and are less obtrusive, and they can be put in quickly and taken out again, so they work well as temporary cover on building sites, in portable cabins and in marquees.
Addressable systems are the most widely used in larger and busier buildings such as schools, hotels, care homes, offices and blocks of flats. Each detector reports its exact location, which helps to cut false alarms, and the system can also shut down lifts or cooking equipment in an emergency. They can cover a single building or a network of buildings.
Aspirating systems continuously draw air through small pipes to a central detector, which spots smoke very early. They suit difficult spaces: dusty or dirty environments, and large, open or very high areas.
