The Calgary Herald Building is a self-storage facility owned by U-Haul. The building is located at 215 16 St SE, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The facility was built in 1980, and served as the head office for the Calgary Herald newspaper. The fire alarm system is mostly original.

System Specifications

FACP

The building is protected by an Edwards EST3 hybrid-addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main electrical room in the basement. The system runs Edwards' Signature addressable protocol, and utilizes a contactor to activate the bells. The system coding is continuous.

Annunciators

There is an Edwards EST3-LCDANN annunciator in the main entrance vestibule.

Notification Appliances

Most notification appliances are Edwards "Durabel" 6000D vibrating bells (6" and 10" gong).
Some areas have Edwards 438D-6N5C and Siemens SFV120-6A vibrating bells (6" gong) as deficiency replacements.

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

Most pull stations are Edwards 270-GAO conventional two-stage single-action pull stations.
Renovated areas have Edwards 270-SPO conventional single-action pull stations; these can also be found in other areas as deficiency replacements.

Automatic Detection Devices

There are Edwards C2M-PD conventional photoelectric smoke detectors throughout the main atrium and at the top of each stairwell; System Sensor C2W-BA conventional photoelectric smoke detectors can also be found in these areas.
There are conventional heat detectors in some areas, models unknown.
There are Edwards SIGA-OSD addressable optical smoke detectors in the main elevator bank lobbies, mounted on Edwards SIGA-SB bases.

EOLs

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