Well, I was not the installer of the alarms but I think that a partial reason is that it needs to be up to code so no one is liable for any lives. Actually at my school, they have Wheelock AS's and that put WAY too many. They put two of them in a very small room where remote strobes are supposed to be. The only place where they did use strobes is in the HUGE library where there need to be horns instead of strobes. Ridiculous huh?? Hope this helped! -Connor
