Fire Safety Compliance

Helping businesses meet their fire safety responsibilities with professional suppression system support.

FIRE SAFETY COMPLIANCE

Supporting Your Legal Fire Safety Duties

Fire safety compliance is a critical responsibility for every business. Whether you operate a restaurant, hotel, café, takeaway, care home, school, commercial kitchen, warehouse, or industrial facility, you need fire protection measures that are suitable, maintained, documented, and aligned with your risk profile.

Firecom Suppression Systems helps businesses meet their fire safety compliance responsibilities through professional fire suppression system design, installation, servicing, maintenance, audits, and documentation.

Certifications and Standards

Fire suppression systems must be designed and maintained with reference to relevant standards, regulations, manufacturer guidance, and the specific risks of the premises.

Key references may include:

BS EN 16282-7 for fixed fire suppression systems associated with ventilation systems in commercial kitchens.

NFPA 17A, which covers wet chemical extinguishing systems and is commonly referenced internationally for the design, installation, operation, testing, and maintenance of wet chemical systems.

UK workplace fire safety guidance, which places duties on the responsible person to carry out and regularly review a fire risk assessment, maintain appropriate fire safety measures, plan for emergencies, and provide staff instruction and training.

Your exact requirements may vary depending on your premises, location, use, insurer, landlord, and fire risk assessment findings. Firecom Suppression Systems can help you understand what applies to your situation.
