Hush-Pro by C-TEC provides fully monitored BS 5839-6 Grade C compliant fire detection, alarm, silencing and test facilities in domestic dwellings such as flats and apartments. As well as putting residents firmly in control of their own fire systems by allowing them to test and silence devices whilst standing at floor level, multiple Hush-Pro systems can be interfaced to a landlord system in a tall building to help make stay-put safer.

When used to its full potential, Hush-Pro can report fires, faults and other system data outside dwellings for action and analysis and provide the fire & rescue service with manual evacuation controls. Visual alarms, voice sounders, cooker shut-off relays, door release interfaces, sprinkler monitoring interfaces, telecare systems, vent controllers and more can all be easily added to the system making Hush-Pro the perfect solution for all high-rise, mixed-use residential buildings and many other domestic dwellings.

• Hush-Pro’s low-level controller and optional visual alarm devices facilitate full compliance with the Equality Act, no need to stand on a chair to test the system
• Superior level of protection – Grade C (monitored wiring) over the typical Grade D (unmonitored) means residents and buildings are better protected. Table 2 of BS9991:2015 (fire safety in the design, management & use of residential buildings) recommends building protection
• Reduced false alarms = less vandalism and fewer complaints from disturbed/angry residents
• No engineer access to the dwellings is required to test the system (monthly occupant test is sufficient)
• Low lifetime ownership costs (the 10 year device removal stipulation of many lower grade systems does not apply)
• Environmentally friendly – Hush-Pro uses less plastic, less power and only one 72 hour standby battery for the entire dwelling
• Break glass call point(s) and IP rated sounders available for use on properties with balconies and other outside areas as recommended in BS 9991
• Options to trigger other systems outside of a dwelling such as security or warden call systems.
• Hush-Pro’s separate fire detectors and sounders are less expensive to replace than Mains/Battery alarms. Only the Hush-Pro Controller requires a battery, which can last over 10 years.
• Optional Fire Service Evacuation Facilities on integrated systems allows the fire and rescue services to securely evacuate dwellings if stay-put is compromised
• Enhanced property protection reduces the risk of societal loss of homes and the need to re-house tenants following a fire
• ENVISION ENABLED – Hush-Pro’s compatibility with C-TEC’s Cloud-based ENVISION software on integrated systems (e.g. a ZFP CAST Landlord system) allows the Building Safety Manager to demonstrate due diligence via a verifiable audit trail.
