A Brief History PAFA's staff must work hard on older systems that are impossible to repair as if they were in one manufacturer's new systems. PAFA believes that this is in the best interests of its clients. PAFA also understands when to tell its clients that a new system would be more appropriate. Part of the SF City Plan of 1889 Board of Supervisors of the City and County of San Francisco granted Pacific Auxiliary Fire Alarm Company a franchise certain to connect interior pull station manual to the city street boxes during the company's first year. PAFA still possesses a Fire Alarm Connection Permit given by the City and County San Francisco. San Francisco was the first large city in the West Coast with a street call system that could signal the Fire Department from the interior pull station. This was due to PAFA's efforts. PAFA's many employees, as well as the fire alarm industry, have benefitted from that system. PAFA is thus a proud member of California Automatic Fire Alarm Association, Inc., the WBFAA board of directors, as well as AFAA, which is an international trade association of these important associations. We Answered the City's First Call in 1889 PAFA was called upon by the City San Francisco back in 1889. PAFA is still here and continues to respond to calls for you.
