Fire Alarm Systems
In most cities and towns, there is a type of fire alarm systems called a municipal fire alarm which is a public emergency alarm reporting system. The municipal fire alarm system connects around 100 pull boxes that are installed on telephone poles, businesses, and buildings. The main purpose of the municipal fire alarm is that it connects directly to the fire department in your specific city.
If you have one of these fire alarm systems, most towns and cities can no longer support or repair as the technology was great in the early 1900″s. Another reason why this alarm system isn’t used as much is because the cost of maintaining the system is extremely high. The cost includes maintaining and monitoring the wires that can be damaged from broken branches, winter storms.
However, in today’s world, we are able to have much more in different forms of communication. An alternative to the municipal fire system now that they are no longer being supported is to install a Radio GSM or IP communicators.
