School's Out... Surge Season Is In!

Case Study:

In 2005, one of the largest School Districts in the Southeast incurred costs in excess of $2,000,000 for repair and replacement of fire alarm systems due to transient voltage events.

The Fire Systems Operations Manager called DITEK and requested their assistance in identifying the underlying causes and recommending Total Surge Solutions.

Over the next few months, their tech team performed no charge site surveys at several of the schools which were experiencing the most significant damage.

Early in 2006, this School District launched a pilot program with Ditek that targeted 20 schools which had a history of recurring losses.

A review in mid-2007 confirmed that these schools were no longer experiencing the trouble alerts and extensive maintenance repair costs they had previously experienced.

In 2008-2009, due to reduced State and Federal funding, this District was forced to reduce their maintenance personnel by 50%.

By installing DITEK surge protection on their systems, training their electricians and technicians on proper installation and monthly preventive maintenance procedures, the District was able to meet their budgetary goals for reductions in workforce as well as significantly lowering their costs for replacing damaged equipment.

The District has authorized installation of surge protection on the fire systems in the remaining 400+ schools; this effort is ongoing and provides on-going revenue.
