designated fire hazard criterion that relates to the building usage. The demand in this instance was classified as an OH 3 which encompasses buildings with a highly combustible load and this demand is now being managed by Grundfos OH3 electric fire sets, supported by control panels, a jockey pump, that work in tandem with a 16channel remote alarm panel. So, with lights, cameras and plenty of action
