Gangwon Fire Headquarters Establishes 'Smart Fire Alarm' System in Fire-Vulnerable Houses

[Asia Economy Reporter La Youngcheol] The Gangwon Provincial Fire Department announced on the 9th that it will be the first in the nation to pilot the installation of a smart LED fire alarm system in fire-vulnerable residential areas within urban regeneration New Deal project districts.

The LED fire alarm system is a system that installs fire detectors and LED lights integrated with IoT technology to alert with alarm sounds and flashing lights in case of fire, guiding prompt evacuation of residents.

This project is being promoted through collaboration between the Gangwon Provincial Fire Department, LH Land and Housing Institute, and Gangwon Urban Regeneration Support Center, supported by the Korea Agency for Infrastructure Technology Advancement.

In connection with the New Deal policy, priority will be given to single-family and multi-family houses and areas difficult for fire trucks to access. By the 10th, the system will be installed in 19 households in Sa-buk Haebom Village, Jeongseon, and about 20 households in the Chuncheon Geunhwa district are scheduled to be equipped in April to May.

After analyzing the effectiveness of the pilot project, the provincial fire department plans to gradually expand the system to urban regeneration New Deal project districts throughout the province.
