RE: Fire Protection System for Computer Room - City Hall Complex
Dear Mr, Carothers:
This computer room will be protected by a Halon Automatic System with no
automatic sprinkler heads below the panel ceiling.
,
The concealed space above the ceiling panels presently has automatic sprinklers
in place. Your request to eliminate the sprinkler heads in this area is
justifiable in view of the value of the equipment involved, but this value also
dictates that ad~quate protection, .or early warning, be provided. .
. .
I have consulted with Captain Jack Shepherd on this problem and he recommends
the fo 11 owi n9:
1. That there be at least two early warning smoke detectors installed in the
concealed space that will be interconnected with present building alarm
system.
2. That an annunciation lite be installed outside over the door to the
computer room that will indicate activation of these detectors.
3. This. annunciation lite shall be labeled to indicate area of alarm function.
Captain Shepherd indicates that this solution can be installed.
If further information is needed, please contact me at 726-3737.
Sincerely yours,
/.e.~/ #Fdz: .
