Maintain Compliance and Safety with ClearView
The ability of fire alarm systems to identify dangers early is perhaps their most important feature. Early detection can help prevent significant property damage and protect occupants, allowing them to evacuate safely. Monitored fire alarms can also alert the fire department to contain the fire as soon as possible.
Effective cost management is a priority for any business, and investing in a high-quality fire alarm system may seem like an added expense. However, the long-term benefits of a functioning fire alarm system and monitoring service far outweigh the initial costs. Not only does early detection prevent significant property damage, but it can also save lives by allowing occupants to evacuate quickly and safely. Additionally, a properly maintained fire alarm system can lower insurance premiums, reducing overall business costs.
At ClearView, we understand that fire safety is crucial for any business, and we offer Fire Risk Assessments to help employers comply with legal obligations. Conducting a Fire Risk Assessment is a legal duty for employers, and it is essential to identify ways to reduce and remove the danger of fire. Our assessments are carried out according to specific regulations and must be re-examined regularly to ensure ongoing compliance with relevant legislation.

What types of fire alarm systems are available?
There are four main types of fire alarm systems: conventional, addressable, analogue addressable, and wireless. Conventional systems use separate zones to indicate the location of a fire, while addressable systems identify specific devices. Analogue addressable systems offer more detailed information about the fire’s location and severity, while wireless systems use radio waves to communicate between devices. Each type has its own unique features and benefits, and ClearView can help you determine which system is best suited for your specific needs.
What type of fire alarm system does my business need?
The type of fire alarm system your business needs depends on several factors such as the size of the building, the nature of the business activities, and the level of fire risk. A fire risk assessment conducted by a qualified fire safety professional can help determine the appropriate fire alarm system for your business.
Generally, larger and more complex buildings require more advanced systems, such as addressable or analogue systems, while smaller buildings may only need a conventional system. It’s important to ensure that your chosen fire alarm system complies with British Standards and regulations to ensure maximum safety for your employees and property. ClearView can help assess your business needs and recommend the appropriate fire alarm system for your specific requirements.
What regulation does my fire alarm system need to adhere to?
Your fire alarm system needs to adhere to the British Standard BS5839. This standard provides recommendations for the design, installation, commissioning, and maintenance of fire detection and fire alarm systems in non-domestic premises. It is essential to ensure that your fire alarm system meets the requirements of this standard to ensure the safety of your employees, customers, and property, and to comply with regulations.
Does ClearView continue to maintain my fire alarm system?
Yes, ClearView offers commercial fire alarm maintenance to ensure that your fire alarms remain effective fire safety measures and comply with regulations. Regular fire alarm maintenance not only prevents false alarms but also keeps your company compliant with regulations. ClearView’s team of experts can tailor a maintenance plan to suit your business’s needs, including routine inspections, testing, and repairs.
