What are pull station clearence requirements
There is no penalty, provided you are signalling an actual fire.
No, it can't take a picture of you. But it can spray ink on you, that will mark you. And probably your fingerprints will be on the alarm.
No! You can't hang or obstruct a fire alarm pull station at any time. To do so would mean you are breaking Health & Safety Regulations (and would probably invalidate your insurance, should there be a fire).
48" from floor to the middle of the pull station
some people are ignorit and think that pulling the fire alarm is a joke (it is not a joke fire men and police are always at the scene of a fire alarm even if it is falsely pulled,police and fire men take it very serious)
pull the fire alarm ;) or you could do things that annoy them/scare them/freak them out.
An adult pulling a fire alarm would get the same reward as a juvenile.If there were an actual fire, they could be thanked for their concern that may have saved lives or property.If there was not a valid reason to pull the alarm, they could be punished by the laws that define the violation and its penalties, and possibly sued by anyone injured or killed during the response to the fire alarm.
Fire Alarm
Yes, of course. If there is an "unscheduled fire," you would naturally want everyone to respond the same way they do during an unscheduled fire drill. Some fire departments require advance notice when a school is going to pull a fire alarm for anything other than an actual fire, but there is no particular requirement to pre-announce a fire drill to anyone inside the school.
call the fire department and/or click the reset button. Check if there is a fire
