The Importance of Fire Maintenance

Article Category: Business

Author Name: Gary Smith

Installing a fire alarm system is only the first step in securing your business against fire. You must also make sure that the system is regularly maintained. Fire maintenance is an important aspect of fire prevention. Your building must be regularly checked out, and the fire alarm system regularly maintained, checked for errors or for parts that need repair.

Maintaining the fire alarm system of a business is expensive when compared to residential fire alarm systems, but the cost more than makes up for it when the business is saved millions of dollar when a fire breaks out. Part of fire maintenance includes performing a risk assessment and updating the fire procedures after a full assessment is finished. Employees or staff are also trained to handle evacuation procedures as well as taught simple fire precaution and fire prevention measures. Regular fire drills must also be observed.

The building premises must also have clear escape signs, and staff must check that the escape routes are always clear and unobstructed. Alarm switches must always be checked if they are working, and power supply regularly replaced.
- Types of fire alarms a business can use
- All types of smoke, heat, and flame detectors, as well as chemical detectors
- Fire extinguishers
- Emergency lighting and flashing lights
- Emergency and escape signs
- Fire Safety notices posted on conspicuous areas
- Sprinklers or other modes of automatic fire extinguishers

By installing and maintaining fire alarm systems, a business can protect itself from property damage, civil and criminal liabilities, and financial liability from litigation. Having a well maintained fire alarm system will also lower insurance premiums. Workers will have enough time for evacuation and lives will be saved as a result. An early warning system will also allow the fire department to arrive more quickly, preventing further damage to the property.

If a business fails to properly maintain their fire alarm systems, it will be at risk for fire, severe property destruction, civil and criminal liabilities, and litigation. Not to mention that the business will probably suffer greatly from the loss such a fire can cause. The problem will be compounded if lives are lost and people are injured.

Businesses at greater risk of fire must install a more complex fire alarm system. It must also maintain a staff that will monitor the premises for any eventual outbreak of fire. Fire alarm systems of such businesses include monitoring cameras, heat sensors, and computer controlled monitoring systems.

Fire maintenance is synonymous with fire prevention. By continually maintaining and updating the fire alarm system, a business can stay safe and protected from severe harm a fire may bring. Federal and state regulations may also require that the business premises be inspected after every few years. So it's important that the system is kept in good working order at all times. Fire prevention depends not only on the installation of fire safety devices; it also depends upon the regular maintenance of those devices, and the training of all personnel in fire safety procedures.
