Annual operational and safety testing of our Fire Alarm Panel is scheduled to take place Tuesday July 14th. Our fire panel and emergency announcement system will be tested and any repairs either made or scheduled. Residents may here announcements randomly throughout the building as this is being done, and see flashing from the hallway strobe lights.

Our team with Fox Valley Fire & Safety will be conducting this effort, testing the main panel in the lobby, and devices throughout the building intended to help protect and warn Park Tower residents in the event of a fire or other major emergency.

From time to time on Tuesday, you may hear test messages and alerts as announcements are made when they are testing devices from floor to floor. You may also see workers in the hallways as they inspect these devices, and the strobe lights on the speakers may flash from time to time. The Fox Valley team is contracted by Park Tower to do this testing each year, to make sure our system is substantially operational and for compliance with the City of Chicago’s life safety requirements.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we conduct this important work. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience, or if the sound and lighting startles you.

If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail us at parktowercondo-mgmt@habitat.com,  or give us a call at 773-769-3250.
