A fire alarm that has not been tested is a hope, not a system. Here is a simple maintenance plan.
Key takeaways
- Scheduled tests
- A test log
- Spares on hand
- Fast repairs
01The problem
Detectors age, batteries fade and cables get cut during other works. A scheduled test of every detector and sounder, a log and a plan for repairs keep the system reliable. Agree the schedule with your fire adviser and keep the record.
