Fire Alarms - Service & Maintenance
Emergency lighting helps your employees, residents, visitors, customers and public escape your property in the safest and quickest way possible. It is a crucial part of Fire Safety. Emergency lighting is often one of the most obvious Fire Protection installations after a Fire Alarm, but the service & maintenance is often one of the most overlooked services too.
Testing
In some cases, the alarm sounder must be tested upto weekly to ensure that it is fully functioning. For buildings which require this testing, this is often carried out by the premises and recorded accordingly. P. W. Fire Services can assist in ensuring that this testing is completed and recorded through training or even through testing contracts.
Regardless of the size of the property or site, annual testing of the alarm is required by law as a very minimum. Some insurance companies may impose tighter testing routines or frequencies though. P. W. Fire Services includes testing of the Fire Alarm to the correct standards and inline with legislation as part of an annual service & maintenance to ensure that you remain compliant with as little effort as possible.

Landlords
Legislation came into force in 2015 which puts the responsibility on landlords to install working Smoke Detectors and working Carbon Monoxide Detectors in any property in which they rent out, which includes Private Landlords renting out to the Private Rental sector. This change to legislation makes it law that any landlord complies. It also means that the majority, if not all, Landlord Insurance Providers would render any insurance policy invalid should the property not comply if a claim is made.
P. W. Fire Services can assist Landlords in maintaining their legality by supplying and installing both Smoke Detectors and Carbon Monoxide Detectors into properties in which they rent out. We can also install thorough Fire Alarm Systems as required in multiple-occupancy properties too.
