Complete replacement is usually the better option when the system is obsolete, difficult to maintain, repeatedly faulty, or no longer suitable for the building. The decision should be based on the condition of the complete installation, not simply its age.<\/p><\/blockquote><p class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" data-start=\"823\" data-end=\"918\">An ageing fire alarm system does not automatically need to be removed and rebuilt from scratch.<\/p><p data-start=\"920\" data-end=\"1165\">Sometimes replacing the control panel, selected devices, or communication equipment can significantly extend the life and capabilities of the system.<\/p><p data-start=\"920\" data-end=\"1165\">In other cases, however, retaining old equipment only postpones a
