There are over 100,000 fires reported in the UK every year. Fire outbreak is a major problem, especially in places like residential apartments, high-rise office buildings, and public places, directly causing millions of pounds of losses.
Prevention is indeed better than the cure in case of fires, which is why it’s suggested to deploy fire marshals aided by a fire monitoring system. Our experts at Guard Patrol Products take the problem of fire outbreaks seriously and have designed the leading Fire Alarm Monitoring System powered by our Data Reader series.
Designed to improve how fire marshals work, our system is designed for fire watch, fire alarm monitoring, fire equipment checking, and fire patrol reporting especially for hotels and apartment blocks.As you may be aware, the daily tasks of the fire marshal include the following routine activities:
- Regularly checking that fire exits and escape routes are not blocked. This includes opening fire doors to make sure there are no obstructions outside
- Checking that the fire extinguishers haven’t been moved and that their servicing is up to date.
- Making sure nothing is covering any emergency exit break glass or fire alarm call point.
- Guarding against the accumulation of rubbish. A combustible fire risk.
- Regularly checking that emergency lighting is working (inside and outside the building).
- Checking fire and disaster alarms weekly.
- Carrying out periodic inspections to ensure that all parts of the premises are safe.
- Before locking up at night, make sure that there are no obvious dangers left behind and that no combustible material is lying around and all doors and windows are securely fastened.
If you would like a system that can
- Monitor your fire wardens to ensure fire alarm monitoring is performed on time,
- All relevant locations are visited
- A record is kept of all actions and incidents plus
- Provide management reports that offer statistical information on patrol performance
Our Minitool Pro Fire Watch Patrol system can also be configured to record weekly, quarterly, half-yearly, and annual checks or services of your fire alarm system. Generating unalterable reports that identify who performed the task, the actual location or system component that was checked or serviced, a description of the task, and a date and time stamp to confirm when the check or service was performed.
