C-TEC’s revolutionary CAST-PRO integrated detection and alarm devices have been chosen for a highly-regarded care home in Wrexham.
Located in the picturesque village of Cymau, Haulfryn Care Home specialises in mental health and dementia care for older people. Leading life-safety specialists, Allied Fire Alarms & Escapes Ltd, were enlisted to replace the home’s old fire system with a CAST ZFP system featuring C-TEC’s innovative integrated CAST-PRO devices.
With heat, smoke & CO detection plus a tone or voice sounder AND a visual alarm device in just one device for fast and easy installation, CAST-PRO represents a real breakthrough in fire alarm technology.
British-built and third-party certified to all relevant EN 54 product standards, CAST-PRO utilises some of the world’s most advanced, innovative and patented technology to provide features and algorithms that adapt rapidly to environmental changes to detect real fires quickly, reduce false alarms reliably and signal true alarm conditions decisively.
John Westerman, Allied’s Managing Director, says: “CAST-PRO is impressive. The feedback from our engineers has been excellent due to the sheer ease-of-install.
“From first fix to second fix, using CAST-PRO has massively decreased our time of installation and subsequent costs. We were also impressed with its programming abilities for multi-use scenarios and the fact that the form factor of the sounder/VADs has significantly decreased.
“Our client also likes the fact that the system’s information is displayed on the ZFP’s touchscreen display and we are currently investigating the possibility of utilising C-TEC’s ENVISION cloud-based data software for monitoring weekly tests and false alarms at the property.”
