Yep, fit something other than Comfort, why
would
you need it in a commercial situation?
I have owned a NACOSS approved company for the
last
11 years, in all that time I have never come across an installation where
it
would be necessary to use anything as complex as Comfort, 99.99% of
customers
just would not be interested, they have enough trouble managing a basic
system.
I asked our NACOSS inspector on his last visit if he had come across
Comfort and
in all his travels he had not even heard of it.
From a purely commercial point of view the
product
shoots its self in the foot, it is expensive, too complex and limited in
its
capacity, 64 zones and 16 users are not enough for a serious installers
requirements. Given the limited number of installs where it could be used
it
does not justify the time and staff training required, its no use having a
product which is not used on a regular basis other wise the engineers spend
to
much time familiarising themselves with it when work is
required.
Before anyone starts jumping on me I think its
a
great product, a credit to the people who have put so much hard work into
its
design, unfortunately its place in the market does seem to be more with
enthusiasts such as ourselves rather than serious installers.

Subject: RE: [ukha_d]Comfort approval
was
Good news!
I think this is a
basic problem
I can't find a installer who is capable of working Comfort
I want to put
Comfort
in my work premises
I have the staff
capable of installing it but as they are Broadcast TV /IT people they
aren't
recognised by the insurers
For my home it
didn't
matter as it wasn't a requirement of the insurance and I did it myself, but
for work I'm at a loss apart from sending 2 of my guys on a course to
Andrew
But I think it is going to take more than that to get an Approval
Certificate
,
Apart from the
install the insurance also need a yearly service
contract
Any one know of a way around this.

It's
your installer that needs approval rather than the alarm I
think.
Good
luck with the new house!

Does Comfort for example have
the relevant BS approval for insurance
discounts?
