Everon has successfully implemented an integrated fire alarm system for a prominent multi-site church organization in Arkansas, encompassing over 15 facilities.
This comprehensive solution includes device-level addressability, extensive inspections, and UL-certified 24/7 monitoring, ensuring adherence to safety regulations and safeguarding thousands of weekly visitors.
Addressing Challenges with Previous Monitoring
The church faced difficulties tracking and identifying fires within its facilities, having previously struggled to find an effective fire and life safety provider.
Although the church had addressable fire detection systems in place, their former monitoring company did not provide a user-friendly interface to view these critical device addresses for rapid emergency response.
Enhanced Fire Safety Measures
Everon's fire and life safety specialists undertook a detailed analysis of the existing systems
With a congregation drawing thousands weekly, the need to easily pinpoint a fire's location was paramount.
Everon's fire and life safety specialists undertook a detailed analysis of the existing systems and streamlined them by reprogramming the devices. They also conducted thorough inspections of the fire alarms and extinguishers to meet local, state, and national fire safety codes.
Comprehensive Monitoring for Improved Emergency Response
To complement their upgraded fire safety infrastructure, the church selected Everon’s UL-certified fire monitoring service. Offering round-the-clock monitoring from strategically placed centers across the United States, Everon enables swift emergency response, operating every day of the year without interruption.
With the integration of the fire alarm system and inspections completed, the church is now able to focus on its services without concerns over the management of their fire systems. The meticulous work and dedication of Everon’s team gained the church's trust, leading them to consolidate all of their life safety services with Everon. This partnership positions Everon as the church’s sole provider for its comprehensive fire and life safety needs.
Everon helped a large, multi-site organization in Arkansas protect 15+ locations with integrated fire alarm systems, inspections, and UL-certified 24/7 monitoring.
A large, multi-site church in Arkansas needed a trusted fire and life safety partner to provide visibility and reliability across all 15 of its facilities. Everon delivered an integrated fire alarm system with device-level addressability, comprehensive inspections, and UL-certified 24/7 fire monitoring—helping ensure safety, compliance, and peace of mind for thousands of weekly visitors.
Previous monitoring company
A multi-location church in Arkansas with over 15 locations was struggling to identify a new fire and life safety provider that would provide them with critical insight into their existing systems.
The customer had addressable systems – a complex fire detection network where each device has a unique ‘address’ on a central control panel to determine the exact location of an alarm for a quicker response – in all of their facilities and locations, but were unable to view these addresses in one clean interface with their previous monitoring company.
Performing fire alarm
With thousands of visitors attending services each week, it became clear that the safety of the churchgoers in the event of a fire was at risk without the proper device address data to quickly identify the fire’s location.
Everon’s team of fire and life safety experts conducted a comprehensive analysis of the customer’s current system configuration and were able to install and re-program the existing fire systems, while also performing fire alarm and extinguisher inspections. The fully integrated fire alarm system helps ensure that the church facilities are protected and in compliance with local, state, and national fire safety code requirements.
Faster emergency response
The customer also completed their fire and life safety system by choosing Everon as their UL certified fire monitoring service, with monitoring centers strategically located throughout the United States and owned by Everon, supporting a faster emergency response in the event of an incident 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
With the customer’s fire safety systems fully integrated, the alarm and extinguisher inspections completed, and now supported by the expertise of Everon’s monitoring teams – the customer was pleased with Everon’s attention to detail that allowed them to return their focus to day-to-day church activities rather than concerning themselves with the management of their fire systems.
Everon’s experts earned the trust of the customer, and eventually the customer transitioned all of their life safety services to Everon – now acting as the customer’s One Ideal Partner for their entire fire and life safety program.
