Protected: residents in two landmark tower blocks in Watford are now benefiting
from Aico Multi-Sensor Fire Alarms and accessories, wirelessly interconnected
with Aico\u2019s RadioLINK+ RF technology.<\/p><\/div>\n

Watford Community Housing (WCH) has installed Grade D, LD1 fire detection systems in two 16-storey tower blocks using Aico Multi-Sensor Fire Alarms and accessories, wirelessly interconnected with Aico\u2019s award winning RadioLINK+ RF technology.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Abbey View and Munden View tower blocks on the Meriden Estate, are Watford landmarks and part of Watford Community Housing\u2019s portfolio of over 5,000 homes.<\/p>\n

David Wright, Surveying Manager at WCH explains: \u201cOur tenants\u2019 safety and wellbeing is our highest priority. With this in mind, and due to the known risks around high-rise buildings, we decided that full fire detection would be appropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n

As an existing Aico customer, David said: \u201cWe believe the products deliver the best in safety for our tenants. We are also aware of what is required from a maintenance point of view, helping us to minimise the time we spend in the properties.\u201d<\/p>\n

This was a consideration for WCH when specifying alarm types, leading them to Aico\u2019s Multi-Sensor Fire Alarm which uses optical and heat sensors
\nto constantly monitor smoke and heat levels.<\/p>\n

The Multi-Sensor has two types of data extraction technology. AudioLINK enables real time data to be extracted from each alarm directly to a
\nsmartphone or tablet via a free App to create an Alarm Status Report.<\/p>\n

RadioLINK+ can extract total system data from a property, for a record of the alarm system in every property managed. And RadioLINK+ data extraction doesn\u2019t even require access to the property.<\/p>\n

Three to four Multi-Sensors have been installed per flat with an Ei164e Heat Alarm in the kitchen and a wall mounted Ei450 Alarm Control Switch.
\nThe Switch allows residents to test the alarms, silence them and locate the trigger alarm from a safe, accessible location.<\/p>\n

The devices within each flat are interconnected wirelessly using Aico RadioLINK+ RF technology.<\/p>\n

Aico\u2019s Ei414 Fire\/CO Alarm Interface provides a dedicated connection between the Aico Part 6 Fire Alarms in each property and the Part 1 system
\nin the communal hallway. Also benefiting from RadioLINK+ wireless interconnection technology, the Ei414 did not require apertures for wiring.
\nThe Ei414 will also enable the Part 6 Fire Alarm systems to be readily interconnected to sprinkler systems at a later date.<\/p>\n
