The Coolum Golf Resort & Spa

OVERVIEW

The Coolum Golf Resort and Spa, formerly Hyatt Regency Coolum, is a luxury international resort located on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. The resort features a championship golf course, a total immersion spa, luxury accommodation and corporate meeting facilities.

SYSTEM SUMMARY

A number of Ampac Fire Finder addressable panels were networked together to provide ubiquitous alarm detection and occupant warning system coverage across the entire resort. With guest and staff safety the primary focus, the resort implemented Ampac’s SmartGraphics system as a single point of reference for direction of resources or appliance attendance to alarms, faults or emergencies across the resort site.

SITE SPECIFIC CHALLENGES

For the project to be successful, it was essential to ensure minimal disruption to guests during migration from old system to new system as well as maintain a high level of fire safety and occupant warning systems for staff operations and guests.

SITE SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS

For the resort site, Ampac FireFinder panels were connected together utilising an optical fibre network which joined the alarm panels and occupant warning systems together to provide a comprehensive total site solution. The sophistication and comprehensiveness of the project panels were further enhanced through the implementation of Ampac’s Smart Graphics system, providing ‘at a glance’ visual indications of precisely where within the resort fault, isolates or alarm conditions were evident.
