Does your business have a fire alarm maintenance contract in place?


Ensuring the highest level of fire safety for the occupants of your organisation’s premises is a legal, moral and financial necessity – that much should be clear for anyone who has spent a decent amount of time reading the Triple Star Fire (http://www.triplestarfire.com) blog, or spoken to one of our technicians. However, it isn’t as simple a process as having the right fire alarm system in place, even with the lengthy assessments and subsequent installation and acceptance stages, perhaps followed by the occasional service. What you need is a more meaningful fire alarm maintenance contract.

It’s vital to meticulously maintain fire alarms, for the simple reason that it can easily be the difference between life and death in the event of a fire outbreak at your firm’s premises. In addition, if a fire does occur at your property, irrespective of whether you have a fire detection or protection system installed, the outcome of any insurance claim that you make will be judged by the insurer on the basis of whether or not the system was fully maintained and operational at the time the incident occurred. It therefore makes sense to invest a relatively small amount of money now to ensure ongoing maintenance and complete peace of mind.

Certainly, having your system regularly checked is also a legal requirement, so it makes complete business sense to invest in a contract for fire equipment maintenance. All work needs to be carried out in accordance with BS5839, which is the British Standard regulating the service and general upkeep of all of the UK’s fire systems. All in all, no fire protection strategy is complete unless arrangements are in place to ensure regular, consistent and up-to-date fire alarm maintenance – but you should contact a professional fire alarm specialist to carry out this work for you.

Here at Triple Star Fire, we take pride in offering the complete Service and Maintenance Contract, which enables maintenance visits on your fire alarm installations to be managed cost-effectively.
