North Hill Centre was the first shopping mall in Calgary, Alberta. It is located off at 1632 14 Ave NW, Calgary. The mall spans two floors, with professional offices (dental, pediatric and doctor clinics) on the second level. The mall was built in 1958, expanded in 1973, and then majorly renovated in 2000. The fire alarm system was upgraded as part of the 2000 renovation, and all pull stations were replaced in 2025.

System Specifications (2000-present)

FACP

The building is protected by a Notifier NFS2-640C addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the food court entrance vestibule. The system runs Notifier's CLIP addressable protocol, and is configured for two-stage operation. The alert signal coding is 20BPM, and the alarm signal is temporal.

Booster Panels

There are likely Notifier FCPS-24 booster power supplies in some areas, possibly triggered by control modules.

Notification Appliances

Most notification appliances are System Sensor "SpectrAlert" P241575A horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, 15/75cd).

Dollarama, opened 2019, has System Sensor "L-Series" PC2RLA horn/strobes (red, ceiling-mount, bilingual marking, set to 30cd).

Winners, opened 2018, has System Sensor "SpectrAlert Advance" PC2WA horn/strobes (white, ceiling-mount, set to 15cd).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are Notifier N-MPS-2A addressable two-stage single-action pull stations, installed in 2025 replacing Notifier NFM-950KBs wired to MMX-101As.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are System Sensor CPX-551A addressable ionization smoke detectors in some areas, mounted on Notifier BX501 bases.

There is a Notifier FSP-851A addressable photoelectric smoke detector on the second floor, mounted on a System Sensor B210LPA base as a deficiency replacement.

Modules

There are Notifier MMX-1A addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system's tamper and flow switches.

There are Notifier CMX-2A addressable relay modules serving various purposes.

EOLs

There are Notifier EOL-CR end of line resistor plates on all sprinkler and signal circuits.
