All suppression systems are required to have a local alarm bell that will sound upon activation of the system. The alarm bell shall be placed in such a location as to provide adequate warning to the occupants of the tenant space. The alarm bell shall be of adequate volume to be heard over the normal noise volume of the establishment. The device shall have a permanent sign attached directly adjacent to the device reading “WHEN ALARM SOUNDS, EVACUATE BUILDING AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT (911)”. A local alarm bell silence switch may be installed, however, it must be installed inside of a lockable box (lock will be a master lock style provided by the Fire Department) that only the Fire Department has a key for.
