A localized alarm has the advantage of letting the occupant know exactly
where the problem is.


BTW: Hopefully you do have fire extinguishers on all floors.


At my church, they put in two monoxide detectors.

As the physical facilities rep, I'd think I would
know about changes like that. But, no. I found out
only by asking very direct and pointed questions
of the paid guys when I saw them on the wall. I can
imagine some day the alarm goes off. No one in the
building has any idea what the device is, or what
to do when it sounds. So, they ignore it.

If you put in alarm and or extinguishers, it's a
good idea to have drills, so the tenants know what
to do, and how to do it.
