A. An Emergency Voice Alarm Communication (EVAC) system is a fire alarm system that uses highly reliable speakers to alert occupants of an emergency and provide further instructions. It is possible to have one installed in your home but would not be very practical. EVAC systems are generally used in very large buildings where undirected evacuation is not a safe option. Speakers are automatically activated by the fire alert system, provide an alert tone and are then used by one or more persons to provide direction. Safety messages are typically read aloud by the buildings Fire Warden from a Fire Command Center.
