Monthly Fire Alarm Testing - May to July 2021
Specific buildings on campus
–
Fire alarm testing
Testing of life-safety fire alarm systems in campus buildings. During the first hour of each test, technicians will test the speakers and strobes to ensure functionality. Technicians then will bypass the speakers and strobes in the facility to test all initiation devices on the fire alarm system silently. Air handlers throughout the facility will be shut down one at a time to test duct detectors as well.
The scheduled testing will be done on the dates shown below with possible back-up dates the end of each month.

Testing is an annual requirement of the National Fire Protection Agency. Testing of duct detectors is to ensure proper operation of duct detectors that are designed to alter ventilation during a fire emergency.
IPF will come through the building and test all the fire alarm devices throughout the facility. Please be aware they may need to access offices, closets, and laboratories during these inspections. Building evacuation will not be required.
