The Barndominium is a small house located just outside Drumheller in Starland County, Alberta. It started its life as a small barn that was built pre-World War I and was converted to a guest house in 2017.
The Fire Alarm System was installed on the 12th of May 2019 by User:AdenK2333, who maintained, tested and conducted fire drills when necessary.
On May 26, 2020 the alarm system was decommissioned and removed due to a dispute between the installer and the owner.
