FAQs
What are the different types of fire alarm systems?
+
There are four main types of fire alarm systems:
Conventional fire alarm systems: These systems are the most basic type of fire alarm system. They have a single control panel that monitors a network of interconnected smoke detectors and fire alarm bells. When a smoke detector is activated, it sends a signal to the control panel, which sounds the alarm.
Addressable fire alarm systems: These systems are more advanced than conventional systems. They have individual addresses for each smoke detector and fire alarm bell, which allows the control panel to identify the specific location of the fire. This can be helpful for firefighters and other emergency personnel.
Wireless fire alarm systems: These systems use radio waves to transmit signals between the smoke detectors and the control panel. This makes them a good option for buildings where it is difficult or expensive to run wires, such as historic buildings or older homes.
Sprinkler systems: These systems are not technically fire alarm systems, but they are an important part of fire safety. Sprinkler systems automatically release water when a fire is detected, which can help to extinguish the fire quickly.
The best type of fire alarm system for you will depend on the size and type of your building, as well as your budget. If you are unsure which type of system is right for you, you should consult with a qualified fire protection engineer.
What are the different types of LED lights?
+
There are many different types of LED lights available, each with its own unique properties and applications. Some of the most common types of LED lights include:
Incandescent: Incandescent LED lights are the most basic type of LED light. They work by passing electricity through a semiconductor material, which causes it to emit light. Incandescent LED lights are not as efficient as other types of LED lights, but they are relatively inexpensive.
CFL: Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) are a type of fluorescent light that is more efficient than incandescent lights. CFLs work by passing electricity through a gas, which causes it to emit light. CFLs are more expensive than incandescent lights, but they last longer and use less energy.
LED: Light-emitting diode (LED) lights are the most efficient type of light available. They work by emitting light when an electric current passes through them. LED lights are available in a wide variety of colours and brightness levels, and they can be used for a variety of applications.
SMD: Surface-mount device (SMD) LED lights are a type of LED light that is mounted on a surface. SMD LED lights are very small and efficient, and they are often used in electronic devices and appliances.
RGB: RGB LED lights are a type of LED light that can emit different colours of light. RGB LED lights are often used in decorative lighting and in applications where the colour of the light can be changed.
How often should fire alarm systems be tested and maintained?
+
Weekly – in commercial properties, all fire alarm systems need to be tested weekly to ensure they’re still working. In accordance with BS 5839, fire alarm systems should be inspected every six months.
