Winsport, formerly known as Canada Olympic Park, is a winter sports park and ski hill located at 88 Canada Olympic Road Southwest, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The park hosted the ski, snowboard, bobsled, luge, and skeleton events for the 1988 Winter Olympics. This page will cover the Frank King Day Lodge, which is the main building for regular customers. The building contains all customer service departments, locker rooms, offices, and a cafeteria. The building opened in 1988, and the fire alarm system is mostly original; the main FACP was installed in 2012, and other devices have been replaced as deficiencies occur.

System Specifications (2012-present)

FACP

The building is protected by a Siemens FireFinder XLS conventional fire alarm system. The panel is located behind the front desk. This panel was installed for remote monitoring from the new Markin MacPhail Centre, and is networked to that system. This panel replaced an Edwards 6500. The system coding is likely continuous.

Notification Appliances

The first, third and basement floors have Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bells (6” gong). The second floor has Edwards 439D-10AWC vibrating bells (10” gong) on Edwards 403-5A-R strobe plates (15cd), likely due to higher ambient noise levels. There is one Mircom BL-10B motor bell (10” gong) on a Mircom strobe plate (model to be confirmed) in the cafeteria as a deficiency replacement.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations but one are Edwards 275-C111 conventional single-action pull stations. There is one Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull station by the second floor cafeteria exit, installed in the 2000s as a deficiency replacement.

Automatic Detection Devices

The building is equipped with a sprinkler system with waterflow detection, so most areas have no detectors. It is unknown if other areas have detectors.
