The Donut Mill is a donut shop/restaurant located at 123 Leva Avenue, in Red Deer County, Alberta, Canada. The building opened in 1994, and the fire alarm system is original with the exception of the FACP.

System Specifications[edit | edit source]

FACP[edit | edit source]

The building is protected by a Fire-Lite MS-5UD conventional fire alarm system. The panel is located just past the main entrance. The system coding is continuous.

This panel replaced an EST 6604 in 2013.

Notification Appliances[edit | edit source]

There are two notification appliances on this system; one outside and one inside.

The indoor notification appliance is a Wheelock MBS-G6-24 motor bell/strobe (6” gong, 1.5cd).

The outdoor notification appliance is an Edwards 439D-6AWC vibrating bell (6” gong).

Initiating Devices[edit | edit source]

Pull Stations[edit | edit source]

All pull stations are Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices[edit | edit source]

There are Edwards 281C conventional rate-of-rise/fixed-temperature heat detectors throughout the building. It is unknown why it is still there, as this model was recalled in 2020.

EOLs[edit | edit source]

There are Edwards EOL-P1 end-of-line resistor plates on all circuits.

Code Violations[edit | edit source]

The Wheelock bell/strobe inside the restaurant has been blocked by a menu since 2013. This is a violation of CAN/ULC code as the strobe flashes are not visible.
