FIRE ALARMS

For your safety and wellbeing, our fire detection system continuously monitors the atmosphere for smoke. It is highly effective so in addition to actual smoke from a fire, there are a number of other elements that can set it off. We have provided some tips to help prevent false fire alarms.

What sets it off and how to prevent it

• Cigarette smoke – smoking is not allowed in any area of the building
• Aerosols sprays, incense, candles – avoid using aerosols near detectors and please refrain from using candles or burning incense
• Shower steam – please remember to close your bathroom door while showering
• Cooking – open your kitchen/lounge windows when cooking, clean appliances to stop debris from burning and causing excess smoke, use your kitchen exhaust fan/rangehood when cooking, refrain from using appliances like toasters, kettles and rice cookers in share apartment bedrooms

What if I accidentally set it off?

Each STUDIO apartment has a fire alarm acknowledgement button located on the wall near your kitchen or in the hallway of your apartment. We have provided detailed instructions on the procedure to follow if you activate the smoke detector. GO TO INSTRUCTIONS
