Domestic Fire Alarms
For a wide range of properties, including apartments, houses of multiple occupation, and high-rise buildings
At Sussex Electrical and Fire, we proudly offer the HUSH-PRO, a state-of-the-art Grade C domestic fire alarm system that complies with the BS 5839-6 2019 standards. This advanced system is equipped with its own mains power supply and a rechargeable backup battery, making it the perfect solution for homes and individual dwellings.
Key Features and Advantages
The HUSH-PRO system is engineered to deliver superior safety and convenience, ensuring your home remains fully protected. Packed with innovative features, it surpasses traditional fire alarm systems to provide added functionality and peace of mind. Below are some of the key benefits:
- Comprehensive Detection and Alarm Functions: HUSH-PRO offers a complete set of user-friendly options for detection, alarm activation, silencing, and testing, making home fire safety simple and reliable.
- Reduction in False Alarms: When integrated with a communal or landlord system, HUSH-PRO significantly reduces false alarms outside the residence, ensuring less disruption for residents.
- Flexible Integration: The system integrates effortlessly with visual alarms, voice sounders, cooker shut-off relays, telecare systems, sprinkler flow switches, and smoke vent controllers, offering versatile solutions for any property.
- Centralised Management: Multiple HUSH-PRO systems can be connected to a C-TEC 'CAST' addressable fire system for centralized control, providing efficient evacuation signaling. This is particularly important for residents who need to follow a "Stay-Put" or "Defend in Place" strategy during an emergency.
Remote Monitoring: HUSH-PRO can send alerts about fire incidents, system faults, and other critical information directly to smartphones, tablets, and computers, enabling immediate action and compliance with safety regulations.
Advanced Fault Monitoring
The HUSH-PRO system continuously monitors its wiring for faults, including open and short circuits, and checks the operation and condition of individual components. If any issues arise, they are immediately indicated on the dwelling's controller, the communal system, and the C-TEC Cloud, ensuring timely intervention. If a fault is silenced by the occupant, the alarm will automatically reactivate after 24 hours if the problem persists, maintaining a constant state of safety.
Exceptional False Alarm Prevention
In the event of a Fire Level 1 alarm (which may indicate a false alarm), HUSH-PRO activates local alarm devices with a distinct message or tone. Occupants can silence the alarm for up to two minutes. If the alarm continues and is confirmed as a false alarm, the system will log the incident as a supervisory event and notify the C-TEC Cloud for remote monitoring. Once resolved, the system will return to its normal status.
Enhanced Protection for Occupants
If a Fire Level 2 alarm occurs (indicating a likely real fire), local alarm devices sound with an evacuation message that cannot be silenced by the occupant. This alarm will also be transmitted to the communal/landlord system, triggering pre-programmed actions. For example, a Fire Level 2 alarm on one floor may activate alarms in other units to ensure at-risk residents are evacuated promptly. All incidents are logged and monitored in the C-TEC Cloud until emergency services arrive.
Safer "Stay Put" Procedures
If the Fire & Rescue Service determines that a "Stay Put" policy has been compromised in a building, they can activate secure evacuation keyswitches on the communal system to help evacuate residents safely. Once activated, a Fire Level 2 alarm will sound across all affected units, and the actions will be logged in both the communal system and the C-TEC Cloud for monitoring and coordination with emergency teams.
