How Often Should Fire Alarms Be Maintained?

BS 5839-1:2017 requires fire alarm systems to receive professional maintenance every six months for most commercial buildings. Higher-risk premises such as care homes and hospitals may need quarterly maintenance visits. We schedule maintenance visits to suit your operational requirements and ensure continuous compliance.

What Happens During a Maintenance Visit?

Our engineers test all detection devices, check control panel functions, verify alarm sounders and visual indicators, test backup batteries, and inspect cable connections. We clean detectors, update system logs, and provide detailed reports highlighting any issues requiring attention. If we identify faults during maintenance, we can often complete fire alarm repairs on the same visit.

Can You Maintain Systems You Didn't Install?

Yes, we maintain fire alarm systems regardless of who installed them originally. Our engineers work with all major manufacturers and can source replacement components for older systems. If your current system needs updating, we can advise on fire alarm upgrades that improve reliability while maintaining compliance.

What If My Fire Alarm Keeps Causing False Alarms?

False alarms often indicate maintenance issues such as dirty detectors, environmental factors, or system configuration problems. Our maintenance programme includes detector cleaning and sensitivity checks that reduce false alarm rates. If you're experiencing frequent fire alarm problems, we can investigate the causes and recommend solutions during our maintenance visits.
