ULC Fire Alarm Monitoring

Fire alarm monitoring connects your building with your local (or nearest) fire department and notifies said fire department if there is an alarm in your building. Fire alarm systems are not inherently connected to the fire department and most panels require an external communication unit to send the appropriate signals to the fire department. MMCI staff has the training and expertise to install and maintain this equipment.

MMCI is a certified installer of CAN/ULC-S561 monitoring solutions and issues a ULC certificate when a system is installed and meets all of the S561 criteria. The ULC certificate is physical proof that the facility meets the ULC standard for fire alarm monitoring. If your current provider cannot issue a ULC certificate, your system may be not be compliant according to the Alberta Building Code 2019 Edition.
