We had some in the area that border on the ridiculous. 83 yr old man gets a call from his daughter who told him to get out of his apt, the bldg is on fire, she heard it on the scanner. How's that for automatic alarm- can you imagine submitting a procedure to an AHJ that includes a tenant's daughter listening to the scanner as a SOP for life safety? Yet the news article instead focused on the wiring issue, complete with a sidebar on basic extension cord safety. No mention of the non-working alarms.

Mostly residential. _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
