After contacting the fire department about the siren I found out that it tests every Saturday at 6:00 p.m. Though I did have some skepticism they were right it does test. The reason however why it is so quiet is because in early 2010s the siren was modified to be quieter (104 db vs 116 db). I'm pretty sure they've achieved this by running it on lower voltages. They have also shortened the test by 2 seconds to avoid the siren reaching a uncomfortable noise level for people near by. The noise levels however were perfectly safe before however they were quite annoying especially if the siren goes off daily. The reason why the siren is modified is unknown. I personally think that the siren had fallen at one point however I cannot be sure of this. Other than that there's nothing really much to say about this siren other than it hopefully will not be shut off in the future.
