System Specifications
FACP
The fire alarm control panel is an EST QuickStart QS1 which was installed during construction. There is an annunciator at the front entrance, but the main panel is not visible; it's in the gymnasium data room.
Notification Appliances
All of the indoor notification appliances are EST Genesis G1R-HDVM (red, wall, no FIRE marking) horn/strobes throughout, all original from 2006. Outside the entrance, there is an EST Integrity 757-7A-T horn/strobe, but it has a Genesis horn behind it, and not the regular integrity horn surprisingly. The strobe is still functional despite the different horn. This was probably done because the building owner may have requested the same sound of the alarm inside, but there was no weatherproof Genesis devices at the time, so they had no other choice but to do that.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
All of the pull stations in this school are EST SIGA-278 dual-action pull stations, original from 2006. This is one of the rare places to have these types of pull stations.
Automatic Detection Devices
The smoke detectors are EST SIGA-PS photoelectric smoke detectors. The 8 portable classrooms have Edwards 280-PL mechanical fixed temperature/rate of rise heat detectors in them.
