There is often no hesitation of these facilities when it comes to installing the finest, most sophisticated, and fasted detection systems on the market.

Because there is generally a lower occupant load and no greater fuel load at high-tech facilities, the life-safety risk and potential fire exposure risk to adjacent properties is minimal. As a result, building codes typically don’t require any unique fire protection features to protect these facilities. However, it is often in the owner’s best interest to protect a high-tech facility with the most expensive and extravagant fire alarm system and automatic extinguishing system money can buy.
