Fire Alarm Maintenance Sittingbourne
Fire Alarm Maintenance
UK fire alarm regulations state that your fire alarm system must be ‘adequately maintained’. However, BS 5839 recommends that a fire alarm system should be inspected by a ‘competent person’ at least every 6 months, and the government recommends following this standard.
Read on to find out more about our fire alarm maintenance services.
A comprehensive fire alarm service agreement with a company that is accredited by BAFE (British Approvals of Fire Equipment) or another third-party accreditor, will help ensure you stay the right side of the law, and your premises and staff are protected.
Fire-Tech Systems is a BAFE accredited company. Therefore, you have the peace of mind that not only do we meet or exceed the highest possible business performance standards, but we also security screen all relevant staff for your safety.
Fire Alarm Maintenance & Servicing
On choosing Fire-Tech Systems as your maintenance provider, you shall receive a non contractual fire safety agreement which states the standards of which the maintenance will be carried out to, including :
- How often we plan to service your Fire Alarm System in accordance with British Standards.
- Providing a detailed certificate of inspection noting all work carried out and detail any additional works required.
- Surveying and checking that your Fire Safety Measures are adequate and meets all current regulations.
- Keeping you informed of any changes to any regulations relating to the fire safety of your workplace.
- Providing you with a written quotation for any works that could not be completed at the time of service
As required in BS5839:1-2017 (46.2), upon the appointment of a new servicing organisation a special inspection of the system should be carried out to obtain sufficient information to be documented for effective future servicing of the system.
Major areas of non-compliance should be documented and identified to the premises management. (it is not implied that non-compliances need to be rectified; this is a matter for the user to determine, based on the advice of the servicing organisation, the enforcing authorities, the insurer and any third-party advisors engaged by the user, as appropriate)
Within this special inspection we will carry out the following:
- Test 100% of the devices on the system
- Check all onsite documentation is current and up to date (Zone Lists etc.)
- Provide report of any remedial action required (if any)
Following a maintenance visit, you should receive a full written report of any devices or parts that have failed the tests. You should also be advised whether the works specified are just recommendations or whether they form a non-compliance issue.
