NU Idea by Cristina Krastle Valderas - Fire Alarm in every Building

Hi Sir,

NU Idea
Fire Alarm Installation

Huge fires cause the loss of many houses, business and even lives. This can be prevented or the effect can be minimized if it was reported immediately to fire stations and help was given.
                Last week at the Malolos Public Market in Bulacan, people, vendors and some stores are panicking because there was an electrical failure in one of the big supermarket in the area. It took sometime before someone called the fire station and report what was happening. It started at the 3rd floor of the building where their stocks and inventories were placed. If the fire was not put down immediately, it can include even the nearby stores which will be a much bigger loss.
                To avoid such cases, a fire alarm can be installed in each house, school and establishment. This will be connected to fire stations. Once there is a fire, instead of waiting for someone to report what was happening, the person who owns the building will just pull the lever which will immediately send an alarm to the station, indicating the exact address of the incident. The installation of such device should be mandatory and a requirement of the municipality as part of their fire prevention program. This device should also be protected from kids playing with it, that it should be sealed or covered but can be removed easily by adults. 4

Thank you.
