It has come to my attention that some professionals in the Fire Science field have taken exception to my blog post. They feel that I should also include fire alarm systems in the bill that I'm proposing. I understand this constructive criticism and wish to add to it.
Fire alarm systems are vital and should be used in conjunction with fire sprinkler systems. Too often we see one system installed in lieu of the other. Thus, only providing half the needed level of fire protection. We need to break down the invisible wall that exists in the fire protection community between the pipe fitters (sprinklers) and the electricians (alarm). This wall has been in place since the invention of the two systems. It has done nothing but pit each discipline against each other. We need to come up with a different title / discipline that assumes fire sprinkler systems and fire alarm systems working and being installed together. We need to start working together in order to provide the best protection possible. Again, if divided we will only provide 50% of the required protection.
