This is a really exciting time for Wiltshire Air Ambulance following the opening of their custom-built new airbase. The airbase will bring together the helicopter, aircrew and charity team on one site at Outmarsh Farm, Semington, near Melksham.

Fire alarm system

This is a perfect location in the center of Wiltshire and will allow the helicopter to reach all parts of the county within 11 minutes. The client received full planning permission for the new airbase in January 2017 and work commenced in April 2017.

The Fire alarm system was designed and installed by A.P.E. fire & Security to cover the new and iconic looking Wiltshire Air Ambulance HQ. A Honeywell addressable fire alarm was specified to meet the client’s requirements. The system was BAFE SP203-1 certificated by A.P.E.
