Annual fire alarm inspection
Why an annual inspection?
A fire alarm system is safety equipment that must be tested regularly to ensure it works when it matters most. Regular inspection keeps the system in order, reduces false alarms and keeps warranty and certification valid.
After the inspection the owner or operator receives a formal report with results and recommendations if anything comes up — so it is simple to follow through.
What is tested?
We check the control panel, sensors, call points and warning devices, test batteries and power supplies, review the event log and confirm that controls respond correctly. We also check connected fire-protection equipment as relevant.

Frequently asked questions
How often does a fire alarm system need inspecting?
A service agreement for regular inspection should be in place for every fire alarm system, and an annual professional inspection is the basis. Simple routine self-checks between inspections also matter — we advise on what is needed.
Do I get a report after the inspection?
Yes. After every inspection we produce a formal report with results and recommendations if needed. The report is useful for inspectors and insurers.
