Emergency Voice Communication systems provide communication in refuge areas, allowing people to call for assistance when they cannot easily use fire escapes or evacuation lifts.
Current Building Regulations require all new non-domestic buildings, with more than one storey to provide ‘refuge’ areas.
They work by simple, effective two-way communication, firstly to assist rescue teams in determining where assistance is required and secondly to reassure people help is on the way.
