Funding has been provided to replace the smoke detectors in the James Hight Library Building, this involves replacing every smoke detector in the Library and up grading the fire alarm panel, this work will now start on Monday 23 November and take until December 20 to complete.

During this work the fire sprinkler will remain fully operational. One of the many advantages of the new system will be the monitoring of the dirt levels in the smoke detectors allowing them to be cleaned before they false alarm. The contactor carrying out this work will be FFP Fire Systems apart from the physical replacement of the smoke detectors most of the work will be around the riser ducts in the lift foyers and the piped services riser duct behind the west tower stair.

Please give any assistance required to these conctractors.
