Fire Detection & Fire Alarm System Design
Fire detection and fire alarm systems are installed to provide an audible and visual alarm in the event of a fire within a building that has been detected by an automatic fire detector such as a smoke or heat detector or by the operation of a manual call point following a person identifying fire and raising the alarm manually.
