Toronto Pearson International Airport is the largest airport in Canada. It is located at 6301 Silver Dart Drive in Mississauga, Ontario, and it serves the city of Toronto, along with most of Southern Ontario. Terminal 1 was built in 2003, and Terminal 3 was built in 1991. The fire alarm system was upgraded in 2021.

System Specifications (2021-present)
FACP
The terminal is protected by a Simplex 4120 networked fire alarm system. All nodes are Simplex 4100ES addressable fire alarm panels. The system runs Simplex's IDNet addressable protocol, and is equipped with voice evacuation. The system is configured for two-stage operation; the messages and/or tones are unknown at this time.
Notification Appliances
Most notification appliances are Simplex "TrueAlert" 4906-9103 remote strobes (white, wall-mount, set to 15cd).
Areas with lower ceilings have Simplex “TrueAlert” 4906-9104 remote strobes (white, ceiling-mount, set to 15cd).
The restrooms and some other areas have Siemens SET-CW speakers (white, ceiling-mount).
The system utilizes the airport's public address system for audible notification in most areas.
The PA speakers consist of Arnscott C81-708-11 8" coaxial ceiling speakers (round baffle) in the main terminal, Arnscott C41-704-15 5" coaxial ceiling speakers in low ceilings (round baffle), and GAP-15T 15 watt paging horn speakers.
There is also one Arnscott 4HV-870 vandal-resistant horn speaker.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
All pull stations are Simplex 4099-9008CAB addressable two-stage single-action pull stations.
Automatic Detection Devices
There are Simplex "TrueAlarm" 4098-9714 addressable photoelectric smoke detectors in some areas, mounted on Simplex 4098-9792 bases.
Modules
There are Simplex 4090-9001 addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system's tamper and flow switches.
There are Simplex 4090-9002 addressable relay modules serving various purposes.
There are Simplex 4090-9116 isolator modules on all SLCs.
EOLs
There are Simplex 2081-9040C end-of-line resistor plates on all sprinkler and strobe circuits.

System Specifications (former system, Main Terminal) (2003-2021)
| Former System Specifications (Terminal 1) |
|---|
| FACP: Siemens MXLV
FACP Location: Unknown |
FACP
The airport was protected by a Siemens MXLV addressable fire alarm system. The panel locations are unknown, but the size and age of the terminal suggest it was an MXLV. The system ran Siemens' FirePrint addressable protocol, and was equipped with voice-evacuation. The system was configured for two-stage operation. There were messages for both stages.
Notification Appliances
There were Siemens CU-MCS bilingual strobes throughout the terminal.
The restrooms had Siemens SET-CW speakers (white, 70V). These speakers are still in use on the Simplex system.
In the main terminal, the audio for the system went through the Arnscott PA speakers.
Initiating Devices
Pull Stations
All pull stations were Siemens MSI-30BC addressable two-stage single-action pull stations. Most of these were replaced during the upgrade, but some can still be found in the gate hallways, however they are likely decommissioned, as the Simplex panel cannot operate them.
Automatic Detection Devices
There were Siemens FP-11 multisensor smoke/heat detectors throughout the terminal.
Modules
There were Siemens TRI-M addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system's tamper and flow switches.
