Fire Alarm Testing
A working fire alarm
system should give enough warning to save lives and hopefully buy fire fighters
enough time to limit property damage. Periodic testing, backed up by regular
user checks will ensure that the system is always protecting people and
property. Over time, smoke
detectors become less sensitive. Standby batteries in control panels become weak
and general faults can develop. Regular checks are an
essential part of fire alarm system maintenance. Periodic testing of
fire alarm systems is a requirement for a local authority fire certificate. The sensitivity of
detectors on a poorly maintained, or neglected fire alarm system may result in
the system not going into alarm condition should a fire develop, that could be
deadly. Tests
Carried Out All smoke and heat
detectors will be tested for functionality. Bells and sounders will be operated
and assessed to ensure that they provide sufficient sound levels in all areas.
Fire panels, their batteries and all cable joints where accessible will be
checked for integrity and functionality. Test
