Fire Extinguisher Maintenance & Fire Alarm Systems
Fire Extinguisher and Alarm Maintenance The levels of training
undertaken by Calbarrie technicians and our commitment to deliver
ISO approved standards of assurance demonstrate our determination
to reduce the risks and dangers of fire.
What is it?
A BS ISO 9001 quality-assured fire extinguisher and alarm
maintenance programme designed to ensure that both work effectively
in the event of a fire.
Why do I need it?
Over time, fire extinguishers can deteriorate and require
regular maintenance to ensure that the extinguisher works to
extinguish the fire when needed.
Sensors in fire alarms can gather dust or debris and batteries
go flat.
Without a maintenance programme you have no warning or defence
against fire. You will also jeopardise any associated fire
insurance claim if you have failed to maintain your equipment and
the necessary records.
What is the legal requirement?
Employers must undertake a fire risk assessment. A designated
member of staff responsible for Health & Safety is accountable
for the servicing of both fire extinguishers and alarms.
Employers are also required to ensure that, where fitted, any
fire protection equipment is maintained to the relevant standard
(The Regulatory Reform Order (2005) Fire Safety Order] and records
kept.
Who does it apply to?
All commercial environments and where the public reside or
visit
