Chinook Centre is the largest indoor shopping mall in Calgary. It is owned by Cadillac Fairview, the same company that owns Market Mall. The mall was built in 1960, renovated in 1999, expanded in 2010, and the food court was once again renovated in 2019.
System Specifications
Panel
The main fire alarm panel is an EST3, installed in 2019. It replaced an EST3 from 1999 due to the old panel having 90 troubles, 23 supervisories, and 11 monitor troubles. It was so problematic that the piezo in one of the annunciators died from sounding so frequently! The current EST3 is voice evac, and labelled GE (New old stock, perhaps?)
Pull Stations
Every pull station noticed is an EST SIGA-270P. The older part's pulls have the shield logo, whereas the 2010 wing has the 2000s EST logo. The skywalk expansion's pulls have the current EST logo.
Notification appliances
The main notification appliances are EST 757-5A-SS25W "integrity" speaker/strobes. The newer wing has G4F-S2VM speaker/strobes and G4F-S2 speakers. In some areas, there are ceiling mount EST speaker strobes. Chase, please fix the model. I'm writing this in a hurry because I have to go somewhere.
