What Happens in a Fire Alarm Fault Inspection?

Fire alarm faults can happen for many reasons, ageing components, power interruptions, damaged wiring or environmental interference. Whatever the cause, our fault-finding process includes:

• Testing the control panel for faults and error codes
• Checking detector heads for dirt, corrosion, or misalignment
• Verifying that manual call points and sounders are responsive
• Examining battery backups and power supply issues
• Inspecting wiring and loop integrity for signs of damage

Once we diagnose the issue, we’ll carry out the necessary repairs, either on-site or, if parts are needed, at a scheduled return visit. You’ll receive a full fault report and certificate of remedial work.
