It is crucial to ensure proper testing and maintenance of all the fire safety devices in your building, such as fire extinguishers, fire sprinklers, fire alarms, emergency lights, exit signs, etc. If your fire safety devices are not inspected and tested regularly, it can put you and all the other occupants in the building at grave risk.

Non-operational fire sprinklers system
Fire alarms, sprinklers, fire suppression systems play a crucial role in alerting occupants and allowing them to escape safely during a fire emergency. But these devices may become non-operable over time without you knowing about it if regular testing is not done by a professional. If you don’t inspect your fire alarms, you may not even know if it is still working or not. There is a high risk of fire sprinkler and commercial fire suppression system failure during a fire emergency if it is not well-maintained. Therefore, it is crucial to schedule regular testing and inspection of these devices.
Blockages in fire safety equipment
Fire safety devices such as sprinklers, fire extinguishers, fire suppression systems are the most effective defense systems against fire hazards. These minimize the life-loss and property loss to a great extent. But these may develop many problems over time if proper testing and maintenance are not conducted. It might not be possible to identify the issues with these safety devices by doing a visual inspection only. Most of the time, your sprinkler system may develop problems inside the pipes, such as blockages, valve jamming, frozen water inside pipes, etc. Your fire extinguishers may also develop blockages if not used for a long time. These problems can only be identified during an inspection from a certified professional.
