Fire system inspections
In the UK, regular fire system inspections are imperative for the continued operation of commercial premises. For fire sprinkler systems, the Fire Protection Association (FPA) echoes the requirements set out in BS EN 12845 that they should be ”inspected at least once a year by a third party.”
The British Automatic Fire Sprinklers Association (BAFSA) have issued an FAQ document on the type and regularity of inspections and services required by UK businesses.
