Chaparral Pointe Condos is a 3-story apartment building in the neighborhood of Chaparral, SE Calgary. This apartment complex was built in 2006, and has the original fire alarm system. The system is serviced by Armstrong Monitoring, and formerly Sprouse Fire & Safety.

System Specifications

FACP

The fire alarm control panel is a Mircom FX-2000, original to the complex from 2006. The panel is located in the front entrance. When in alarm condition, the panel makes all horns (FHS-240R and MH-S25WA) do code-3, with all strobes synchronized. The system runs Mircom's CLIP addressable protocol.

Notification Appliances

The main notification appliances are Mircom FHS-240R horn/strobes in the hallways and lobby, original from 2006. The units have Mircom MH-S25WA silenceable mini horns, one per bedroom. The horns are loud enough to be heard throughout the units. The FHS-240R horn/strobes are set on high volume, electromechanical horn. In one of the units, a Mircom mini-horn in a bedroom broke down, and was replaced with a System Sensor "SpectrAlert Advance" MHWZA (white, silenceable) mini-horn.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All of the pull stations are original from 2006. They are Mircom MS-401AD CLIP addressable pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

The hallways, stairwells, common areas and elevator lobbies have Mircom MIX-2251B CLIP addressable, photoelectric smoke detectors.
