Why is fire alarm "n/a" and why no status on the alarm?

If I want to build a home, I must install a sprinkler system but a laundromat with 10-20 dryers (guessing - never been inside) does need to have sprinklers. That certainly makes sense.

That place is a total disaster waiting to happen. This is only the 1st step. Between the washers leaking and creating odors and mold, along with the restroom being the worse ive seen in all of salisbury, i dont know why the health department hasnt shut them down.

Bet there were no city engines with a crew of volunteers that got out for that call. Why the sorry chief has run them off . And he says that all the others ones are still there working yea I bet . Station 2 has maybe 16 members and well 16 has there pictures on the wall to remember them .
