And there you have it. I figured that, when Herb, three firefighters, and I had trouble resetting the pull station during that accidental fire alarm at the pool last Thursday, the Edwards 270A-SPO that had recently been installed at the pool and was the center of the action in this alarm would not be long for this world. And I was right. This is what greeted me when I arrived for today’s workout:
And apparently it’s at the end of a line, because it had this written on the top of it:
This seemed to be the more logical choice in pull stations for this facility. The system is Notifier, and Fire-Lite and Notifier are both in the Honeywell family of companies. That Edwards station, while fully compatible with the system (as was clearly demonstrated), just didn’t feel right in a building that otherwise used Notifier pull stations. As there are three other BG-12 stations in the building already, it’s not an outlier by any means.
But there you go. Three different pull stations in one spot over the course of about a month or two. Now let’s just hope that little children keep their grubby little mitts off the pull stations while I’m trying to swim…
