Fire alarm devices are complex systems, with a number of intricate components that must work together seamlessly in order to protect lives and property. To create powerful systems that function properly in the event of fire, fire alarm designers often have concerns regarding these critical matters.
Code Compliance
Fire safety codes vary from state to state, but all jurisdictions have a set of codes that must be followed. Ensuring that every system is in compliance is a primary concern of fire alarm designers. CAD software specifically for fire alarm design, such as our FireCAD™ product, can help ensure that every fire alarm system you design is in compliance with the fire safety codes you work under, including the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 72) National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code.
Client Expectations
Fire alarm designers are tasked with meeting the number one expectation of every client: occupant safety. The bottom line for property owners, contractors and other stakeholders hiring a fire alarm designer is this: If a fire breaks out, can this alarm help get everyone out of the building quickly and safely? Using a fire alarm design tool like FireCAD™ can improve the process of designing a system that will meet their expectations.
Business Objectives
While saving lives and protecting property is always the number one goal, clients may have additional fire alarm design expectations related to their business objectives. They may be interested in a system that reduces the volume of false alarms on their property, a system with better longevity than their previous fire alarm investment, or a system that can be leveraged for other types of emergency response.
To help achieve these objectives, use a CAD program that’s specifically meant to be a fire alarm design tool, like our FireCAD™ product.
FireCAD™ is available in a number of flexible subscription options, or to purchase as a lifetime license. To learn more about this dynamic fire alarm design tool that can address your concerns and those of your clients, contact Cadgen Software now.
