Life Safety System Monitoring in Oregon, Washington, & Northern California

As a business owner in Oregon, Washington, and Northern California you may recognize the importance of installing life safety systems, including fire protection equipment and communication solutions. To maximize the benefits of these systems, consider going one step further with central station monitoring.

Performance Systems Integration offers several types of monitoring for multiple systems in your building.

To learn more about the life safety system monitoring services we provide in Oregon and Washington, please contact us today.

Types of Central Station Monitoring

The purpose of monitoring your life safety systems is to ensure the appropriate emergency personnel receives an automatic notification if an alarm goes off. Here are the types of central station monitoring we offer and how they work:

Fire Alarm & Sprinkler Monitoring

If your fire alarm sounds—whether because an occupant activated a manual pull station, a smoke detector went off, or a sprinkler head engaged—your fire monitoring system sends an alert to a monitoring station, which then forwards the message to the local fire department within seconds. This ensures a crew is dispatched to your location even if no one thinks to dial 911.

Utility System Monitoring

Your business might utilize heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVACR) equipment, water heaters, and electricity. Utility system monitoring informs you if any malfunctions occur, helping you avoid dangerous situations, discomfort, damage to sensitive hardware, and food waste.

Options for Central Station Monitoring

If you still use antiquated dial-up or dedicated phone lines for central station monitoring—or worse yet, you have no methods in place to monitor your life safety systems—it’s time for an upgrade. As digital communication continues to improve, you have more options than ever for reporting fire, security, and utility alarms to a central monitoring station. At PSI, we offer our customers the two best options: AES radios and internet dialers.

AES Radios

Performance Systems is proud to offer PerformanceNet, a monitoring method that uses AES-IntelliNet radio hardware to send alarm communications via a UL-listed, self-healing radio network. The radio network is famous for surviving hurricanes and wildfires when other communication infrastructures crumble, and PerformanceNet has several failsafe options in case something goes wrong.

We provide you with a primary and secondary IP link, each of which delivers internet communications to the central monitoring station. These links are connected to separate Internet Service Providers (ISPs), which can utilize a dial-up connection as an additional backup. In short, you have four different methods of failover to ensure your message reaches its destination.

Internet Dialers

If you’re capable of managing your network at a level worthy of transmitting life safety information to a central monitoring station, internet dialers could be the method you’re looking for. This service tends to be much less expensive than using a dedicated phone line, and the message has no chance of becoming garbled the way it can over the phone.

Set Up Life Safety System Monitoring

Whether you’re interested in one or multiple types of central station monitoring, Performance Systems can get your business set up with the right solution for you. We’ll make sure you understand all your options so you can make the best, most cost-effective decision for your Oregon or Washington business.
