SMOKE, HEAT AND FREEZE PROTECTION
Your system should be installed with Smoke,
Heat, and Freeze Alarms as well as Carbon
Monoxide Detectors as a part of an overall
fire, heat, and gas protection system. Fire
protection is active 24 hours‐a‐day, 365 days
a year.
In the event of a fire or poisonous CO gas
emergency, the installed smoke or carbon
monoxide detector automatically activates
your security system. Not only will the fire
alarm itself emit a loud sound, the Control
Panel emits an intermittent and loud horn
on an external sounder (if an external
sounder has been installed). The fire alarm
sound continues until the timer expires on
the Fire Alarm or until you enter a User Code
at the Control Panel.
