The notification appliances vary throughout the hotel. The hallways, lobby area, conference centre, and most other common areas have EST 757-5A-SS70 “Enhanced Integrity” speaker/strobes (70V, red, wall-mount). The pool area has System Sensor “SpectrAlert Advance” SPRKA speakers (70V, red, wall-mount) with EST CS405-7A-T weatherproof remote strobes (red, wall-mount, 15/75cd) beside or underneath them.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are EST SIGA-270P addressable two-stage single-action pull stations.
