Frequently asked questions

How does CCTV fire detection work?
Analytics running on your camera streams detect the visual signature of flame and smoke, then alert our operators to verify and escalate — often well before a conventional detector triggers.
Does it replace a fire alarm system?
No. It is an early-warning layer that complements conventional detection and is especially valuable in open yards, plant areas and large unoccupied spaces.
Is it suitable for outdoor and construction sites?
Yes — open sites are where it performs best, since conventional smoke detection is impractical outdoors.
What happens when fire is detected?
Operators verify the alert on camera and escalate immediately to your nominated contacts and emergency services, logging every action in the incident record.
