As the heating system for the wings is gas fired, having it set up to shut down as soon as the fire alarm is
activated seems to be a good idea. In theory.
Those who have graced these portals will instantly realise the flaw - that cons will sometimes hit the fire alarm out of mischief, boredom or to distract staff while they pick up a parcel of illicit goodies from the perimeter. Surprisingly, no one is suggesting that maybe the governor is creeping around setting the alarms off just to save on his heating bill!
What would the governor get by saving money of the state? I think it would be more beneficial for the gov. to let the heating on and, instead, get his family to stay with him in the prison quarters.
