Smoke Detector Services

Having a smoke detector in your premises could help save your business and the lives of you and your staff.

Every year the Fire and Rescue Service is called to over 600,000 fires which result in over 800 deaths and over 17,000 injuries.

It’s best practice to have smoke detectors installed on each level of your premises, especially in areas that are at higher fire risk – for example, kitchens, rooms with fireplaces or electric heaters, or sever rooms.

What are Smoke Detectors?

Smoke detectors and fire alarms are not the same, though they do work together.

A smoke detector will sense smoke and sound an alarm in the area where there is smoke. They are responsible for picking up smoke, but not necessarily heat or Carbon Monoxide.

A fire alarm is responsible for raising a wider alarm and prompting the whole building to take action. It is usually triggered by a smoke detector, or can be triggered manually, and will sound an alarm in the entire premises.

Both smoke detectors and fire alarms must be installed correctly and tested regularly to ensure your business is protected.
