Costco Wholesale is a chain of big-box stores headquartered in Issaquah, Washington, USA. This particular store is located at 2584 46 Avenue East, in Nisku, Alberta, Canada, adjacent to the Edmonton International Airport. The store opened in 2018, and the fire alarm system is original.

System Specifications (Main Store)

FACP

The building is protected by a Fire-Lite MS-9600UDLS addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located behind the returns desk. The system runs Fire-Lite’s LiteSpeed addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal.

Annunciators

There are four Fire-Lite ANN-RLED annunciators on the system. Two are located below the main FACP, and two are located in the main entrance vestibule.

Notification Appliances

Most notification appliances are System Sensor PC2WLA-E horn/strobes (white, ceiling-mount, set to 15cd, English lettering). There are System Sensor P2RLA-E horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 15cd, English lettering) located at every exit. The coolers, freezers and exterior have System Sensor “SpectrAlert Advance” P2RKA weatherproof horn/strobes (red, wall-mount, set to 75cd).

Initiating Devices

Pull Stations

All pull stations are Fire-Lite BG-12LX addressable dual-action pull stations.

Automatic Detection Devices

All areas of the store are protected by a wet sprinkler system with waterflow detection. There is one Fire-Lite SD355 addressable photoelectric smoke detector near the back of the store, mounted on a System Sensor B210LPA low-profile base.

Modules

There are Fire-Lite MMF-300A addressable monitor modules supervising the sprinkler system’s tamper and flow switches. There are also Fire-Lite CRF-300A addressable relay modules by each fire exit, which cause the door locks to disengage when the system goes into alarm.

System Specifications (Liquor Store)

FACP

The store is protected by a Fire-Lite MS-9600UDLS addressable fire alarm system. The panel is located in the main entrance vestibule. The system runs Fire-Lite’s LiteSpeed addressable protocol, and the system coding is temporal. This panel is likely wired to the main store’s FACP as an addressable point.

Annunciators

There is a Fire-Lite ANN-RLED annunciator below the main FACP.

Notification Appliances

Most notification appliances are System Sensor PC2WLA-E horn/strobes (white, ceiling-mount, set to 15cd, English lettering). There are also System Sensor SCWLA-E remote strobes (white, ceiling-mount, set to 15cd, English lettering) for additional visual coverage.
