Description
The project involves the installation, testing, and commissioning of a post indicator valve (PIV) system to add supervision and protection to the fire alarm system in Building 78 at the Bath VA Medical Center. The existing fire alarm system will be upgraded to support 11 zones, and voice alarm annunciation devices will be added to the resident areas. The project also includes the installation of new control assemblies, software changes, and testing of the entire system. The work must be done under the supervision of a Honeywell-trained and certified system installer, and the testing of the building's fire alarm system and components must be done under the supervision of the Bath Fire Department.
Some key features of the project include:
• Installation of PIV valves and control assemblies
• Upgrades to the existing fire alarm system to support 11 zones
• Addition of voice alarm annunciation devices to resident areas
• Software changes to support the new zoning and voice alarm system
• Testing of the entire system under the supervision of a certified installer and the Bath Fire Department
• Compliance with VA requirements and NFPA 72 standards for fire alarm systems
