Posted on behalf of 成人VR视频 Campus Public Safety
As part of 成人VR视频鈥檚 ongoing efforts towards ensuring a safe environment, the Fire Prevention service will once again be performing annual inspections of the fire detection and suppression systems. This year聽Leclerc聽will be performing these tests which involve verifying all components of systems within each building.
Building affected: McLennan-Redpath Complex
Dates: Tuesday, November 15 to Friday, November 18, 2022
Proper signalization will be installed at strategic points throughout the building, to advise incoming staff, students, and visitors that tests are underway. The signalization will be removed when the inspection is completed.
Fire alarm inspections consist of:
- Ringing of the fire bells will occur聽one time聽and will take place no later than聽07:30 AM. This is a necessary measure aimed at ensuring that all bells function within normal parameters. Depending on the size of the building, the testing should last anywhere between 5 minutes to 1 hour.听听听听听听
- A systematic room-to-room testing of all smoke/heat detectors.聽The process involves smoking or heating each detector until they react and sending a signal to the fire panel. This process requires between 1 to 3 minutes per detector.
- A systematic test of all manual pull stations. All manual pull stations are pulled and reset.
Sprinkler inspections consist of:
- Visual room-to-room inspection of each sprinkler head.
- Further system tests conducted in the sprinkler room.
