6-Month Fire Alarm Testing
Half-yearly testing represents a critical checkpoint for your fire safety systems. During these visits, our technicians conduct detailed examinations of your alarm components, including:
- Visual inspection of all devices
These mid-year checks catch potential issues before they become serious problems. For many commercial properties and HMOs, these six-monthly inspections form part of legal compliance requirements.
Annual Fire Alarm Testing
Yearly testing provides a more extensive examination of your entire fire detection system. This comprehensive annual inspection includes everything covered in the six-month check plus:
- Detailed documentation and certification
This annual check ensures your system remains fully compliant with current regulations. Our technicians will highlight any areas requiring improvement or maintenance, helping you plan necessary upgrades.
