While installing a fire alarm system may make lower insurance rates possible, it is not a substitute for fire insurance! An automatic fire alarm system - typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control with remote notification capability - can provide early warning of a developing fire.
