Fire - Boise Alarm

Fire Alarms

Structural fires are very dangerous and very destructive. According to ready.gov a fire can become life-threatening in two minutes and engulf a residence in five minutes. Fires in large buildings may take longer to engulf the structure but are just as dangerous. Raw materials, chemicals, merchandise, furniture, appliances, and a host of other commonly found items are flammable and cause flames to spread quickly while emitting blinding, choking smoke. Due to the danger fire presents, it is imperative that your home, business, or factory is equipped with a high-quality fire alarm system and fire response system. At Boise Alarm, we can install the system you need to keep you safe. Our monitoring services will ensure that trouble is spotted and responded to the moment it arises.

Smoke Alarms

Smoke often precedes the appearance of flames. Having high-quality smoke alarms can pick up on these beginning traces of smoke and alert you to the danger. The alarm systems we utilize are the best on the market to ensure that they will sound in the case of a fire while minimizing irritating false alarms. The smoke detectors we install are interconnected so that if one goes off, they all go off. This helps ensure that you will hear the alarm regardless of where the danger is located.

Heat & Carbon Monoxide Alarms

Rising heat can indicate a fire. Heat detectors can sense this change in temperature and sound an alarm to alert you to the danger. Some heat detectors are triggered by a rapid change in temperature (Rapid Rate Detectors) while others are triggered when the temperature rises above a threshold temperature (Fixed Detectors). Like our smoke detectors, our heat detectors are interconnected so that if one goes off, they all go off. This safety practice makes it harder to miss hearing an alarm.

Ceiling Sprinklers

Installing fire sprinklers allows you to take an offensive approach to fire defense. These life-saving and property-saving devices activate when a threshold temperature is reached, spraying water into the room to extinguish flames and lower ambient temperature.

Waterflow Detector

Waterflow detectors are installed in conjunction with a sprinkler system. This device monitors the water supply to the fire sprinklers and activates if the sprinkler system has been tripped. When activated, it sends a signal to your fire system to sound the alarm or sends an alarm to fire dispatch to alert them of the emergency.

Base Station

A base station adds brains to your fire defense. With a base station, you can control alarms, know at a glance which alarm has been triggered, and automatically contact emergency dispatch. Due to its import role, we use the best base station technologies on the market. The systems we use are durable, reliable, and easy to understand and use. That way you can enjoy peace of mind and a hassle-free experience. The same base station can be used for both your fire system and security system.
