5 looking at the Google Earth images, it looks like many of these building have peaked wood roof structures. Do you know if heat detectors are installed in the attic spaces?

THEY ARE NOT.

6 SOW says to test in accordance with NFPA 70B, but this is not the appropriate standard for test fire alarm equipment. The requirement should be to test in accordance with the Chapter 14, "Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance" section of

CONCUR WITH CHAPTER 14 INSTRUCTIONS.

9 Are any of these buildings protected by an automatic fire sprinkler system? If so, which ones?

BLDG 262 WET SYSTEM, BLDG 272 DRY SYSTEM

10 Are the attics of any of these buildings equipped with heat or smoke detectors? If so, which buildings, and approximately how many of each

NO

11 Please confirm that this contract requires only annual testing of the fire alarm systems, not the monthly testing dictated in NFPA 72.

AFFIRMATIVE

12 . The floorplans were helpful in estimating the number of initiating devices and notification appliances that should be expected on the site, but a proper list of these devices would eliminate the guesswork. Is there a list of the number of devices, NO- LISTING OF SYSTEMS ONLY.

13 Please confirm that someone on site has all necessary passwords to access the fire alarm control panels, has the contact information for the central station, and will be available during the testing visit.
