Fire Alarm Installation Shipley
When it comes to installing a fire alarm system for your business it can be more complicated than you first think. A qualified and trained designer can design a system to be fully compliant with the chosen category for your business. Commercially, under BS5839-1:2017, there are the following choice of categories:
Category M – Manual fire alarm system
Category L1 – Maximum life protection automated fire alarm system
Category L2 – Additional life protection automated fire alarm system
Category L3 – Standard life protection automated fire alarm system
Category L4 – Modest life protection automated fire alarm system
Category L5 – Localised life protection automated fire alarm system
Category P1 – Maximum property protection automated fire alarm system
Category P2 – Minimum property protection automated fire alarm system
However the designer should not choose the category, they should deign a system to meet your chosen category. So how do you choose a category? By utilising all stakeholders? E.g. Your own input (for example do you want to protect life and your building), the results of your fire risk assessment should help and input from your insurer. The designer can also offer advice but as one of the stakeholders.
Every stage of an installation should be certificated. On completion you should have the following certificates: Design, Installation, Commissioning and Handover.
