What Concerns Should Outdoor Warning Sirens Manufacturers Avert?

“High Installation and Maintenance Cost”

Outdoor warning sirens have a long lifecycle of about 25-30 years, and also, to supplement this long life, the usage of these devices is quite less. Due to this, the replacement of these products is comparatively less. In various countries, sirens are being used for a time period that varies between a years or a few decades, as a result, several agencies have adopted various programs to maintain these sirens.

Some of the sirens are being replaced, whereas a large number of them are getting repaired. The accessories prices are also quite high. In 2017, the price of replacement of batteries in these sirens was about US$ 650-700. Adding the maintenance cost to this, a total bill of about US$ 6,500 was generated. The high maintenance cost and less replacement of the product also hamper the outdoor warning sirens market growth over the forecast period.
