Integrating Fire Alarm Systems

Fire alarm systems are commonly used to supervise, monitor, and control functions of other building systems. They integrate with other fire protection and building systems in almost every project. The term integration has a variety of meanings. To some, integration consists of the monitoring or control of other building equipment, systems, or subsystems by a protected premises fire alarm system.  Fire detection systems have been integrated with door locks and with HVAC fan and damper controls for smoke management for many years and these systems have relied on relays controlled by the fire alarm system to override normal operation.
