About this file

This document is an annual fire alarm test and inspection report for Fort Vancouver Building 721's Auditorium/Gym, conducted by Salem Fire Alarm on October 17, 2024. The inspection revealed several critical deficiencies, including expired heat detectors in the basement (three devices from Chemetronics and Chemetron manufactured in 2002 and 1982) and a failed dialer battery. The report recommends replacing the heat detectors in accordance with NFPA 72 section 14.4.3.2, replacing the dialer battery, and addressing previously unresolved system issues. Salem Fire Alarm notes that if deficiencies are not corrected, they will be reported to the local Fire Marshal's office, and the system is due for smoke detector sensitivity testing in the next inspection cycle.

The inspection covered multiple system components, including smoke detectors, manual pull stations, and notification appliances. Two smoke detectors in the gym (north and south) passed visual and functional tests, as did three manual pull stations. However, the heat detectors in the basement (south, north, and boiler room) failed due to expiration. The report includes detailed technical information such as device manufacturers (Silent Knight, Wheelock, System Sensor), battery specifications, and communication system details. The facility is located at 1501 E. Evergreen Blvd in Vancouver, WA, and the site contact is Alex Patterson, who can be reached at 360-921-6240 or alex_patterson@nps.gov.
