Dunsmuir Middle School is a middle school located at 3341 Painter Road, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. The school opened in 1965, and has been added on in 1967, 1969, a major expansion 1973, 1976, 1977, 1989 and recently 2015. The fire alarm system is partially original, and was partially upgraded in 2015.

System Specifications (Main Building, 1965-present)

FACP

The building is protected by an EST QuickStart QS4 hybrid-addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main electrical room, and was installed in 2015, replacing an Edwards Custom 6500, this was installed in 1973 after a major expansion, the cabinet remains beside the QS4. The main school is wired up as hybrid-addressable, and the portables are conventional. The system runs EST’s Signature addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Annunciators

There is an EST RLCD-C annunciator paired with two EST RLED24 annunciators at the main entrance. All annunciators are mounted inside an EST RA-ENC3 enclosure.

Notification Appliances

Main Building

The 1965-1977 wings have the original Edwards “Durabel” 6100D vibrating bells (10” gong).

The recent additions have Edwards MB10-24 motor bells (10” gong); these can be found as deficiency replacements.

Most deficiency replacement bells are Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells (10” gong).

Other deficiency replacements include:

  • A Simplex 2901-9724 motor bell (10” gong) in the auxiliary gym
  • A Notifier KMS-10-24A motor bell (10” gong) in a classroom hallway

The boiler room has an Edwards “Genesis” G1RF-VM remote strobe (red, wall-mount, FIRE marking, set to 15cd).

Portables

Most notification appliances are Edwards MB10-24 motor bells (10” gong).

One portable has an Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bell (10” gong).

Two portables have Simplex 2901-9724 motor bells (10” gong).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations. These are mostly original in the 1965-1977 wings. Deficiency replacements of all generations can be found throughout.

There is also one 270-SPO with "LOCAL ALARM" in the school. The newer wing has Edwards 270A-SPO pull stations.

All pull stations in the portables are newer Edwards 270-SPO conventional pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

Main Building

There are EST SIGA2-PS addressable photoelectric smoke detectors throughout the building, mounted on EST SIGA-SB bases.

All storage rooms have Edwards 281C conventional fixed/rate-of-rise heat detectors. Deficiency replacements include

  • Edwards SIGA-PD addressable photoelectric smoke detector in a stairwell
  • Edwards 6249C conventional ionization smoke detector
  • System Sensor 5601A conventional fixed/rate-of-rise heat detector in a classroom.
Portables

There are System Sensor 5601A conventional fixed/rate-of-rise heat detectors in most portables. There is an Edwards 283A conventional 135°F fixed temperature heat detector in a storage room.
