Fire Protection: Systems and Response

Firefighters and other emergency responders deal with a number of fire protection systems in their daily response to emergencies. This book provides a straightforward overview of the functions and benefits of these systems and how they can assist with fire suppression, code enforcement, and alarm response. Fire protection systems continue to be an important part of fire protection and the comprehensive discussion of elevator rescue, fire command centers, emergency generators and lighting, and HVAC systems sets it apart from other books in this genre. Logically organized and clearly written, this book covers all systems in a single text.
