Συστήματα ανίχνευσης & συναγερμού πυρκαγιάς

The B.I.O. framework highlights the importance of detection and alarm systems as critical components of fire safety in buildings. A fire detection system consists of smoke or heat detectors that emit warning signals (audible or visual) to alert occupants and prompt early evacuation. Early fire detection is crucial in preventing fatalities and reducing property damage.

Statistics show that early detection via smoke alarms significantly reduces fire deaths and injuries. Countries with mandatory smoke alarm regulations, such as the UK and Germany, report lower fire-related deaths compared to those with less coverage. Correct placement and interconnection of smoke alarms ensure timely warnings, especially during sleep or in large buildings.

Compliance with EU standards for detection systems and regular maintenance are essential. Awareness campaigns and regulations promoting the installation of these systems are vital for improving fire safety across Europe.
