Introducing Hassantuk: The Ultimate Fire Safety Solution for Villas in the UAE

The Hasanatuk intelligent alarm system has enhanced the fire response system, aiding the endeavours of civil protection agencies to proactively safeguard lives and property. The system guarantees prompt communication and accurate data when fires are detected, leading to better response times, prevention, and protection.

In the UAE, compliance with safety instructions and civil protection measures is being emphasised by authorities, particularly during the high temperatures of summer. The absence of fire alarms in villas has contributed to several unfortunate incidents resulting in loss of life and property, making it crucial to follow prevention requirements. The Civil Defense is often notified of fires only after they have already spread extensively, making it too late to prevent significant damage or loss of life.

According to the Civil Defense General Command of the Ministry of Interior, most fires occurred in residential dwellings in the UAE during 2022 and were caused by several factors, including electrical faults, incense burning, cooking, ironing, smoking, and other causes.

Cooperation between advanced technology suppliers and the UAE’s efforts in the civil protection sector has resulted in the installation of more than 43,000 smart alarms in residential units to date. This has successfully prevented over 400 real fire incidents, thus saving lives and protecting properties. The success of this initiative underlines the advantages of partnerships between technology providers and civil protection agencies.

The Hassantuk system has been proven to be highly effective in fire prevention and safety. It is an integrated system that enables early detection of smoke and heat and provides an immediate response in the event of a fire. This system offers constant protection, operating continuously 24/7, whether residents are at home, away, or even on holiday. So, how does  the system operate, and what is its precise role in mitigating potential threats?

Starting with domestic alarms in the villas, Hassantuk installs smoke detectors in every room and heat detectors in the kitchen. If the smoke level exceeds the parameters set by the Civil Defence, a local alarm is immediately triggered. With the 'One Go All Go' feature, all detectors in the villa will sound at the same time, immediately alerting residents and allowing them to take action.

With 24/7 monitoring, each detector in the house is linked to Hassantuk's Signal Receiving Centre using e& enterprise's IoT solution. This enables instant notifications to be sent to the centre whenever a sensor is activated. Competent operators authenticate these notifications by contacting the registered emergency contacts for the house. If the alert is validated, or if communication cannot be established, the alert is forwarded to the Civil Defence dashboard, which displays precise data about the affected location and sensor.

The Hassantuk emergency response provides validated alerts and accurate location information, enabling civil defence to respond quickly and effectively, ensuring a targeted approach to extinguishing fires and saving lives.

The system also offers convenient and flexible monthly plans that are integrated with etisalat by e& bills, making it easier for customers to access this essential service. Hassantuk is also the only fire alarm system that offers a temporary silence option during the traditional burning of bukhoor or incense, ensuring a hassle-free experience for users.

Hassantuk offers a complete end-to-end service, including convenient online ordering, scheduled installation, system testing and deployment, 24/7 monitoring, on-site maintenance, customer support and billing. The system also provides a seamless way for sponsors and developers to equip their villas with the system, facilitating bulk orders and ensuring fire safety prior to handover.

Unlike other fire safety systems, Hassantuk is fully connected, monitored, and integrated with Civil Defense, providing a significant advantage in terms of effectiveness and efficiency. Furthermore, Hassantuk provides the convenience of a mobile application, affordable monthly packages, and state-of-the-art equipment, guaranteeing maximum safety for residential units or villas.

Installing, using, and maintaining Hassantuk is straightforward. Customers may purchase the system from the Hassantuk website, choose a plan, and schedule installation at their convenience. Installation typically takes less than an hour, and Hassantuk offers complete maintenance support, including automatic field visits to address any problems. In case of any issues, customers may contact a dedicated helpline for prompt assistance.

As the system continues to evolve, Hassantuk's upgraded features incorporate remote silencing, smart home integration, and AI-based preventive maintenance. These advancements will bolster Hassantuk's fire detection and prevention capabilities, guaranteeing optimal protection for households.

To adhere to safety regulations, the UAE Cabinet has mandated that all existing and under-construction residential villas in the country be installed with Hassantuk systems. This mandate highlights the government's dedication to safeguarding life and property by emphasising fire safety for all.

As part of its strategy to play a pioneering role in the rapidly changing digital environment, etisalat by e& has formed partnerships with leading global vendors and worked closely with authorities. The roll-out of the integrated Hassantuk mobile app, in partnership with the Ministry of Interior, demonstrates the commitment of etisalat by e& to actively contribute to the advancement of innovative digital services and increase their availability in the field of digital transformation.
