Fire detection system
                   
   
The existing system comprises a Gent Vigilon analogue fully addressable system. It would appear that record information does not indicate the system category for the floor area, however our local inspection would suggest that it is designed in accordance with a P2 system. For the purpose of this estimate it is assumed that the existing is retained in it’s entirety with no works whatsoever other than the Comms Room where there may be a need for an automatic detector/sounder subject to confirmation by the Clients own Risk Assessment. The existing installation will be modified in accordance with our interpretation of the systems design criteria as required by BS5839 Part 1 2002 and Building Control Regulation B1.
