Fire alarm Hush Buttons

It is common place to specified a Fire alarm with a “Hush Button” facility within HMO’s.

Around 80% of all UK fire deaths and injuries occur in dwellings. Nowhere is the risk greater than in houses of multiple occupation where a fire in one ‘dwelling’ can quickly spread to another.

Unfortunately, an increased risk of fire means an increased risk of fire alarm systems, that produce false alarms. Failure to reduce false alarms can lead to unnecessary building evacuations, irate tenants, system vandalism and true fire alarm signals being ignored.

Hush Button fire alarm solution tackles all of these issues head on.

Designed to work with a wide range of fire alarm system protocols, from the leading fire detection companies, Apollo XP95 or Hochiki ESP analogue addressable fire alarm systems, it meets and exceeds the requirements of BS 5839 part 6 (the code of practice for fire alarm systems in dwellings) by providing reliable, fully monitored fire detection, alarm and silencing facilities INSIDE each individual flat or apartment.
