Fire Alarm Servicing
Fire alarms are essential for safeguarding lives and property, offering an early warning system in the event of a fire. Statistics show that the risk of fatality is more than twice as high in homes without functioning smoke alarms compared to those equipped with operational devices. Protect your home, business, or residential space by ensuring your fire alarm system is properly installed and maintained.
When Does Your Fire Alarm Need Attention?
Even with a lifespan of up to 10 years, fire alarms can develop faults due to unforeseen circumstances. Prompt action is vital to ensure the system remains reliable. Common reasons for fire alarm malfunctions include:
- Expired or drained batteries (responsible for 25% of alarm failures).
- Dust accumulation disrupting the sensor.
- Water damage affecting the device.
- Loose or disconnected wiring.
- False alarms triggered without smoke or fire.
- Electrical grounding faults.
- Physical damage to the unit.
If you notice any of these issues, don't delay addressing the problem to maintain optimal safety.
