Yes, building fire safety systems can generate noise. Fire alarms, for example, are designed to emit loud sounds to alert occupants of a potential fire or emergency. These alarms often produce high-pitched, piercing sounds that are easily audible throughout the building. Additionally, fire suppression systems like sprinklers or gas-based fire suppression systems may produce noise when activated, such as the sound of water flowing through pipes or the discharge of gas. It's important for these systems to be loud and noticeable to ensure the safety of building occupants during emergencies.
