Fire detection systems automated in Yakutsk installed
In the heart of Yakutsk, the city's capital, a significant initiative is underway to improve residential fire safety, particularly for large families. The "ASFA for Large Families" program, aimed at installing Autonomous Smoke Fire Alarms (ASFAs), has been actively promoted by local authorities.
Where is the program being implemented?
The Gagarin District, one of Yakutsk's bustling areas, is a key location for this program. The Municipal Autonomous Institution "Emergency Management, Civil Defense, and Fire Safety" is responsible for the installation of these life-saving devices in homes of large families.
Who Benefits from the Program?
Alena Oschepkova, a mother of seven children, a widow of a participant in the SVO, and an activist in the Gagarin District, was one of the recipients of an ASFA on August 13. Alena expressed her gratitude to the Government of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the administration of the city of Yakutsk, and the local administration of the Gagarin District for their support and assistance with the program.
How Widespread is the Installation?
While detailed statistics on the exact number of installations in Yakutsk or specifically in the Gagarin District are not publicly detailed, local government announcements indicate that the program is ongoing and installations are being made progressively as part of municipal safety initiatives.
Where to Purchase ASFAs in Yakutsk?
For those interested in purchasing an ASFA, these devices can be found in various locations across the city. They are available at local hardware stores, specialized fire safety equipment shops, major electronics retailers, and online marketplaces serving Yakutsk and the larger Sakha Republic region.
Maintenance of ASFAs
The maintenance of ASFAs is straightforward. They only require changing the batteries at least once a year and periodically cleaning the dust from the camera with an optical-electronic sensor.
Installation Process
Intriguingly, installing ASFAs on ceilings and walls does not require the laying of special fire alarm lines or the use of additional equipment.
For families eligible under the program, it’s encouraged to contact the Gagarin District administration or local social services in Yakutsk to inquire about subsidized or free installation under the "ASFA for Large Families" initiative.
For more specific local contacts or detailed instructions on how to apply for the program, feel free to ask! Other relevant contacts include the PozharOFF trade and installation company and the branch of the All-Russian Voluntary Fire Society (VDPO).
In conclusion, the "ASFA for Large Families" program is a crucial step towards enhancing fire safety in Yakutsk, making homes safer for large families and reducing the risk of fire-related deaths.
The "ASFA for Large Families" program is implemented in the Gagarin District of Yakutsk, a key location for this initiative. The installation of these Autonomous Smoke Fire Alarms (ASFAs) is not limited to the recipients of the program; they are also available for purchase at various home-and-garden and electronics stores, as well as online marketplaces, across the city and the larger Sakha Republic region.
