Annual testing of the Fire Life safety system

Dear Eastern Resident:

It’s that time of year again! The annual Regulation for testing of our fire life safety systems required by the City will take place Wednesday, August 10 beginning at 10:00 a.m.

Unit access will be required for every unit to inspect the fire sprinklers. This inspection happens every 5 years. We will send an update as the date is closer to arrange for unit access.

If you’ve been here for the testing in the past, I’m sure you remember that it’s a bit of an annoying day – lots of alarms going off, people making noise in the hallways, intermittent loss of power in the common areas, etc. We’ll do everything we can to keep the nuisance to a minimum, but it’s a good day to plan activities outside of the building.

For those of you who will be home, the testing will last throughout most of the day, ending at around 5:00 p.m. The inspectors will begin on the Penthouse level and then continue down to each floor until completion.

Your telephone, satellite and internet connection will likely be lost during the emergency power test from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.

Best Regards,

Brandon Patterson, CCAM-HR
