Fire Alarms

How often should I test my alarm?

Non-residential premises must carry out a daily check of the fire alarm pane, ensuring no faults are displayed, as well as a weekly test of the alarm system. The weekly test should involve testing a different fire alarm manual call point each week and ensuring the alarm sounder/bells activate. The manual call points should be numbered and the test recorded in the fire log book.

Should my fire alarm system be monitored?
