Drexel Main Building - Fire Systems Info from Mr. Taylor

The Main building has conventional wet sprinkler and hose riser fire protection. No suppression systems are installed in Main. Randell, Curtis,, and Alumni have standpipes. There is a small stove hood suppression system in the prep kitchen near the Museum on the third floor of Randell, and another suppression system in the data center in Curtis. The fire alarm system in Main is a relatively new addressable system with pull stations, smoke detection where required and sprinkler interface. The system coverage extends to all four buildings. To learn about the security system they should contact Drexel’s office of Public Safety. I don’t know who would be the appropriate contact but I believe they have a contact directory on their website.
