Our experienced engineers provide planned servicing, maintenance, fault finding, system takeovers and technical support for a wide range of fire alarm systems.
As a BAFE SP203-1 certified company, we work to recognised industry standards for fire alarm services.
Why Regular Fire Alarm Servicing Is Important
A fire alarm system needs regular inspection and maintenance to help ensure that its components continue to operate correctly.
Regular fire alarm servicing and maintenance can help to:
- Identify faults and potential problems early
- Check that detection and alarm devices operate correctly
- Reduce the risk of undetected system faults
- Help minimise unwanted or false alarms
- Maintain appropriate service records
- Identify equipment requiring repair or replacement
For non-domestic premises, fire alarm systems should be maintained in accordance with the relevant requirements and recommendations, including BS 5839-1 where applicable.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 also places duties on responsible persons in relation to fire safety and the maintenance of fire safety systems.
The appropriate servicing frequency depends on the type of system, premises and applicable requirements.
Our Fire Alarm Servicing Includes
During a planned fire alarm service, our engineers inspect and test relevant parts of the system.
Depending on the system installed, servicing may include:
Manual Call Point Testing
Testing manual call points to confirm that they operate correctly and activate the fire alarm system as intended.
Smoke & Heat Detector Testing
Checking suitable detection devices and testing their operation in accordance with the system requirements.
Fire Alarm Control Panel Inspection
Inspecting the fire alarm control and indicating equipment for faults, warnings and other issues.
Sounder & Warning Device Testing
Testing relevant audible and visual alarm devices to check that they operate correctly.
Battery & Power Supply Checks
Checking batteries and associated power supplies for signs of deterioration or faults.
System Log & Fault History Review
Reviewing available system information, fault history and relevant records to identify issues requiring attention.
System Operation Checks
Checking the operation of the fire alarm system in accordance with the applicable system requirements and relevant standards.
Following servicing, we provide appropriate service documentation and reports for your records.
Fire Alarm Maintenance Contracts
We provide fire alarm maintenance contracts tailored to the type of system, premises and service requirements.
A planned maintenance contract can provide businesses and property managers with an organised approach to ongoing fire alarm servicing and system support.
Maintenance arrangements can include:
- Scheduled servicing visits
- Fire alarm system health checks
- Fault diagnosis
- System testing
- Maintenance reports
- Technical support
- Repair recommendations
- Priority callout arrangements
Six-Monthly Fire Alarm Servicing
Six-monthly servicing is commonly used for many commercial fire alarm systems, subject to the requirements of the system and premises.
We can assess your installation and advise on an appropriate servicing schedule.
More Frequent Servicing
Certain premises and systems may require more frequent inspection or servicing.
This can include buildings such as sleeping accommodation, care homes, hotels and other higher-risk premises, depending on the applicable requirements and system arrangements.
We recommend assessing the individual premises rather than applying the same servicing schedule to every building.
Fire Alarm Fault Finding & Repairs
If your fire alarm system develops a fault, it is important that the issue is investigated promptly.
Our engineers provide fire alarm fault finding, testing and repair services for suitable systems.
Our services can include:
- Fire alarm fault diagnosis
- Investigation of unwanted alarms
- Replacement of faulty devices
- Battery replacement
- System resets and testing
- Identification of wiring or equipment faults
- Repair recommendations
- Responsive callout support
We aim to identify the cause of the problem and recommend an appropriate solution to help return your system to reliable operation.
If your fire alarm is displaying a fault or repeatedly generating unwanted alarms, contact our team to arrange an assessment.
