The CASE Park Phones Takes the Heat

October 29, 2020 by admin

 

This year has been another of large, persistent wildfires – causing billions of dollars in damage to homes, businesses, nature preserves, parks, and communities. This year’s round of fires has been even more widespread – reaching communities in Northern California, Oregon, and now even portions of Colorado.

There has also been another cost – loss of reliable communication. Often in wildfires, phone and power lines are damaged or destroyed, knocking out communication for thousands of miles. The solution, of course, is to have a reliable, wireless communication checkpoint that can use either cellular or satellite technology and self-sufficient solar power to ensure people have a way to contact help.

You may have seen how our CASE Lexan Call Box survived the 2018 California Wildfires and remained operational even after repeated exposure to extreme heat and flames (If not – check it out here). Communities in frequent fire zones can put this same reliable communication equipment to work in a number of different ways.

  • Roadside call boxes for motorists stranded because of fire-closed roads
  • Neighborhood call boxes to act as a communication back up if and when traditional lines fail 
  • Early fire detection systems on trails and lookout stations for witnesses to report fires 
  • Campsites and national parks for visitors to request aid if threatened by fire conditions 
  • Checkpoints for firefighters to relay up-to-the-minute information on fire suppression efforts 
  • Emergency phone service for temporary shelters serving those displaced by fires

With CASE, you don’t have to worry about lines keeping communication equipment operational. You also don’t have to send teams to check equipment either – with available self-monitoring systems to report maintenance issues back to a central control panel. What’s more, CASE can configure your emergency communications device to contact anyone – the fire department, emergency medical teams, fire command center, teams coordinating evacuations, and more.

Knowing that wildfires can be as unpredictable as they are dangerous, it just makes sense to invest in public safety with emergency communications equipment that keeps people connected to help anytime, anywhere… Just in CASE.

What others are saying

Since the Call Box has been installed we have had two medical calls which were critical cases. Thanks to the Call Box Law, medical aid was at location in 10 minutes or so. In the past with no cell coverage folks had to drive out of the canyon… This would add about 30 minutes to the response time. We believe lives were saved due to the Call Box.

Program Manager, Nevada County Office of Emergency Services
 

The phones are simple to use. One need only open the call box and follow the 4-step instructions. These are a unique and valuable asset to the County, and we hope that individuals will recognize their value and help us maintain and protect them so if and when they are needed, they can serve members of and visitors to our great community in times of need.

John Higley
Emergency Management Coordinator, Iron County
 

Thank you everyone, this means a lot to my department as we work toward improving public safety and officer safety. Every person who calls us from a phone box at the bottom foot paths lowers the chance of harming themselves and us getting harmed as we work to help them.

Ryan Hall
Staff Sergeant, Delta Police Department
 

The Iron County Sheriff’s Office is very excited about the addition of these satellite phones in these remote locations. This will help all emergency services in Iron County to rapidly respond to emergencies where there is little or no cell phone coverage.

As a Vendor in the Emergency Callbox Realm, I find CASE Emergency Systems to be one of the most efficient and well thought-out product lines that I deal with in the 911 industry. Their Callboxes and Emergency management systems are second to none. Engineered to be backward compatible the reliability will stand the test of time. I personally promote their products because they are nearly bomb proof! Their customer service and small business feel helps you to meet your priorities. Without a doubt I recommend you look into CASE Emergency Systems for any of your Safety/911 needs.

I cannot say enough about CASE Emergency Systems and our working relationship with them. We are early in the process, but are implementing a 3-year plan to replace our 24 existing phones and add 18 more. The simplicity of installation, the automatic daily self-diagnostic reports, the low maintenance, and the company’s overall service are outstanding. Our current project and initial installations are our first use of CASE products. They are excellent on all counts, and we will continue to use CASE Emergency Systems into the foreseeable future.

Emergency Management Coordinator, University of Texas at Tyler
 

Thank you for the phones. They work flawlessly, and the members love them.
