Upgrade Solution for Fire Safety System Hindered by Asbestos Issue
Fire safety audit identified a need to upgrade an outdated fire system in supported living accommodation. Asbestos presence delayed the project, requiring new solutions for maintaining fire safety. Implementation of a wireless RF system was proposed as a cost-effective and efficient solution, meeting audit requirements and ensuring property compliance with futureproofing measures. Detailed product requirements and installation notes were provided for the proposed system.
