Avoid Fire Alarm Failures and Costs
In today’s corporate world, ensuring life safety and business continuity is just as important as being able to react quickly and flexibly to changing market requirements, customer needs and emerging risk. Thinking ahead is particularly important for fire safety. Expansions in your business, drops in system performance or increased operational costs due to increased maintenance or false alarms can call for more modern protective measures.
You need a simple approach to maximizing your fire and life safety protection investment to avoid potential failures, costly downtime, and unscheduled maintenance fees.
Here are five determining factors for fire alarm system upgrade or replacement:
Systems that were installed prior to 2005
Increase in the frequency of unscheduled repairs over a short period of time
Facility improvements such as renovations or expansion with increased staff
Recalls or difficulty finding replacement parts
Changes in local fire alarm code and your building falls under those requirements
The danger of waiting until a system or a significant component fails is that the owner is now faced with a reactive emergency replacement and these are always more costly than a planned replacement. Fire watch, overtime installation rates, and other similar replacement costs can add up quickly.
