Miette Hot Springs is a tourist attraction in Jasper National Park, AB. It is an outdoor hot pool with two pools. The building also has a restaurant, and a souvenir gift shop. Only most of the bells, and maybe one pull station is original.

System Specifications

FACP

The fire alarm panel is an EST QuickStart QS1, which looks to be installed around the 2000s. It likely replaced an older Edwards/EST panel, likely a 2280 or 6616. The panel is located behind the front desk. Despite the QuickStart QS1 being an addressable panel, the system is set up in a non-addressable manner.

Notification Appliances

The notification appliances are mainly older Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bells. These ones take 0.075 amps of current instead of the 0.085 amps which are seen in the 1990s-early 2010s ones. The one in the lobby is mounted upside down. Outside where the pools are, there is a Notifier KMS-10-24A motor bell, replacing an older bell that was no longer functioning.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

The pull stations are mainly Mircom MS-401. They are mixed from the older and newer Mircom logos, so some were replacements. It is unknown why they are there. However, the pull station behind the front desk to a staff room is an Edwards 270-SPOB bilingual pull station, possibly original.

Automatic Detection Devices

The smoke detectors are mainly Edwards EDW1451A ionization smoke detectors. One of them was replaced with a System Sensor C2W-BA i3 photoelectric smoke detector. The heat detectors are are Edwards 281B-PL.
