Tennessee district escapes proprietary systems and saves by re-using existing wire in fire safety upgrade
The Cheatham County School District saves $120,000 to $150,000 by reworking fire equipment already in the building.
Fire-Lite Alarms by Honeywell systems transformed the fire protection throughout a dozen elementary, middle, and high school facilities in the Cheatham County School District (Ashland City, TN). On top of replacing a patchwork of antiquated systems with non-proprietary technology able to be purchased and serviced by any licensed fire alarm dealer, Fire-Lite Alarms’ retrofit capabilities allowed the district’s budget to cover a more extensive fire alarm renovation.
The district had reached a point where replacement parts for its assortment of older conventional and addressable fire alarm systems were hard to come by, and servicing was shoddy at best.
