Vivacité Beauharnois is an 8-story residential concept, comprising two floors of underground parking and 189 rental units tailored for individuals aged 50 and above. Nestled on the banks of Lac Saint-Louis in Beauharnois, this project provides a tranquil setting and stunning panoramic vistas. The building is conveniently located in the town of Beauharnois, with apartments featuring terraces that offer daily views of the lake and horizon.
The fire alarm system at Vivacité Beauharnois features an advanced setup that includes three interconnected Maple Armor FireWatcher FW106 control panels. Serving as the central command and control hub, this system is strategically installed on the first floor within a one-hour fire-rated partition, ensuring optimal fire detection and safety measures are implemented throughout the residential building. To enhance safety and communication, two annunciators are located at the main entrance. One of these units is equipped with a sequential LCD display, providing clear visual alerts, while the other includes LED control buttons that facilitate the management of auxiliary functions associated with the fire alarm system. In terms of individual safety, each bedroom is fitted with a dedicated horn, and the common areas are equipped with high-visibility horn/strobe to ensure that alarms are noticeable even in noisy environments. Additionally, certain signal circuits are connected to auxiliary power supplies that are directly linked to and controlled by the fire alarm control panels, enhancing the overall reliability and effectiveness of the system in emergency situations.
The system oversees all fire protection equipment, being comprised of the electric fire pump, waste chute, and emergency generator. Additionally, the system manages several auxiliary operations, including staircase pressurization, ventilation shutdowns, elevator recall, smoke extraction in parking areas, and unlocking access doors. The fire alarm network is linked to a central alarm station through a Bosch signal transmitter.
