The Bella Apartments is a small walkup apartment building located at 893 49 Ave SW, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The building is owned and operated by Boardwalk. The building was built in 1958, and the fire alarm system is mostly original.

System Specifications

The building is protected by a 120VAC hardwired fire alarm system, with a horn and initiating devices wired in series-parallel. The system coding is continuous.

Notification Appliances

The sole notification appliance is an Edwards "Adaptahorn" 364 remote horn (grey), located on the second floor. This is acceptable as the sound output properly covers the building.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are L-S FA-1 conventional single-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are American Sensors ESA5011 ionization smoke alarms on each floor, which trigger the horn when activated.
There are Mirtone 73320 conventional 135°F fixed-temperature heat detectors in the boiler and laundry rooms.
