Villa Garuti Hotel

 

Nestled on the picturesque shores of Lake Garda, Villa Garuti is a distinguished 4-star hotel renowned for its elegant suites, serene ambiance, and beautiful park. Following a recent comprehensive renovation, the hotel prioritised the installation of a high-performance fire detection system. The key objectives were to guarantee the utmost safety for all guests and staff while seamlessly integrating with the hotel's sophisticated and luxurious aesthetics, minimising the potential for disruptive false alarms.  

 

Fire alarm designer Pezzaioli Stefano from Studio Tecnico FUTURA PROJECT in Montichiari (BS) and the expert installer Ervin Peza, owner of ELE.CO Srl, collaborated closely to deliver a fire safety solution tailored to Villa Garuti's unique needs. Their meticulous planning and execution led them to select Hochiki's advanced product range.

 

 

The Implemented Fire Detection System Features:

 

Latitude Fire Control Panel

 

This powerful and scalable control panel provides the hotel with a robust and reliable foundation for its fire safety infrastructure. Its loop capacity ensures that multiple devices can be connected and managed efficiently, offering comprehensive coverage across the entire property utilising 6 loops (from its 8 loop capacity). For the hotel industry, this scalability means the system can adapt to future expansions or modifications without requiring a complete overhaul, representing a long-term and cost-effective solution. The advanced diagnostics and user-friendly interface of Latitude also simplify maintenance and reduce potential downtime, crucial for uninterrupted hotel operations.

 

 

 

ESP Intelligent Devices (Sensors, Call Points, Sounders and VADs)

 

Hochiki's ESP (Enhanced System Protocol) devices offer a multitude of benefits for hotels. Their intelligent nature allows for sophisticated detection algorithms, significantly reducing the likelihood of false alarms caused by steam, dust, or cooking fumes – a common concern in busy hotel environments. This reliability ensures minimal disruption to guests and staff, preserving the hotel's reputation for seamless service. The addressable nature of ESP devices allows for precise pinpointing of fire incidents, enabling swift and targeted responses, minimising potential damage and maximising safety.  

 

 

 

ALN-EN intelligent smoke sensor

 

An intelligent optical smoke sensor ideal for hotel environments as it offers reliable and early detection of smoke from various fire types while minimising false alarms caused by steam or aerosols, common in areas like kitchens, bathrooms or near cleaning activities.

ACC-EN intelligent multi-sensor

 

Enhances safety by combining both optical smoke and heat detection capabilities. This makes it particularly useful in hotels, as it can respond effectively to a broader range of fire conditions, providing quicker and more accurate alerts to protect guests, staff and property.

Both of the above sensors integrate seamlessly with Hochiki's ESP protocol for efficient and addressable fire detection systems.

 

 

Black Sensors (Wellness/Spa Area)

 

Recognising the importance of aesthetics in the hotel's wellness and spa area, which features dark ceilings throughout, the installation team opted for Hochiki's black sensors. This thoughtful choice demonstrates how Hochiki's product range caters to specific design requirements without compromising on safety. By seamlessly blending with the dark ceiling, these sensors maintain the sophisticated and relaxing ambiance of the spa, ensuring that safety measures are discreet and do not detract from the guest experience.

 

 

Ervin Peza, owner of ELE.CO Srl, the installation company, stated

 

"When Villa Garuti approached us for a new fire detection system, we knew we needed a solution that offered both exceptional performance and aesthetic sensitivity. Hochiki's products, particularly the Latitude panel, the intelligent ESP sensors, and the availability of black sensors, provided the perfect combination of reliability, advanced technology for minimising false alarms, and design flexibility. The ease of installation and the robust nature of the system give us and Villa Garuti complete confidence in the safety of their guests and the protection of their beautiful property."

 

Hochiki's comprehensive and adaptable fire safety solutions have provided Villa Garuti with a system that not only meets the highest safety standards but also respects and enhances the hotel's elegant environment, ensuring peace of mind for both management and guests.
