    My Primary School in the UK had fire alarms similar to the Edwards system. Absolutely scared the living daylights out of me as a kid!!
    Made worse by the fact we had a Headteacher who was obsessed with making us repeat the drills because we either weren’t quick enough…or we weren’t quiet enough!! 😢😢

    I like the old horns, they aren’t too loud and they kind of sound like music.
    The ones at my school aren’t Simplex or Edwards but they sound like this:

    I wonder if the second building was built with the Edwards horns or if the Edwards horns replaced the Simplex horns in the second building.

  • @aidanthetoiletelevatorfire7554

    Is that Notifier filtered DC because most of the Simplex horns sound fine.

    • @RJARRRPCGP
      @RJARRRPCGP Před 2 měsíci

      I believe it is well filtered. Also, the last one, is possibly how it's mounted. (look at the gap on the lower right )

      @@FourtyFiftyEighty my big issue with the whole grandfathered thing is since this an apartment complex strobes should be added for those with heating difficulties. If that fire alarm goes off in either building it can make all the noise it wants but if you can’t hear it, you won’t know what’s going on.

      I don't think that strobes are always required. My elementary school replaced a horn strobe with a bell.
      My high school has a few integrity horn only's.
