Fixed Fire Protection
Effective fire protection is key to mitigating losses. Our team of experts can help at any stage of the project lifecycle to ensure your systems are effective.
Why Fixed Fire Protection Matters
Fixed fire protection systems are vital to mitigating loss and safeguarding your people, assets, and operations. The rapid growth of fires means quick and reliable system operation is crucial in controlling fire at its earliest stages. Ensuring correct design, installation, and ongoing maintenance helps keep your buildings and operations safe.
Our fire protection expertise
We can support in different ways depending on your needs, including:
- Specification review - consultation and review of fixed fire protection design and installation schemes to create strong foundations for success from the project design stage onwards.
- Fixed fire protection design plan reviews - our team of experts can review documents, plans and hydraulic calculations to check compliance with appropriate design standards.
- Site inspection - the correct installation of pipework and equipment is crucial to ensuring a protection system will be effective when it is needed. A specialist team member will visit your site during the installation phase to inspect the installation.
- Witness testing - once a system has been installed, we will conduct an on-site survey and witness the testing of any fire pumps or equipment required to verify its adequacy.
