Purchasing a fire alarm system is a life saver. It is one of the necessary things in life that we need to spend on. Everyone’s safety depends on it. You need a fire alarm to work and not fail you when you need it the most- when a fire breaks out.
Fire alarm systems are a major safety requirement under the New Zealand Building Code clause of F7 Warning systems. They are your first line of defense when a fire breaks out.
When buying a fire alarm system, you don’t necessarily need to buy the most expensive one, what you need is to purchase the best one that adequately aligns with your property and keeps your staff safe.
Top Things to Consider when Choosing a Fire Alarm Installation Service:
A robust fire alarm system starts with a properly-installed one
It’s one thing to purchase a good fire alarm unit, but another issue altogether when installing it on your premises. Proper installation guarantees its full functionality. You can expect good site performance where its sensors, remote signaling, and sound components are triggered into action when it detects the presence of smoke (co2), carbon monoxide and rising temperatures.
Know what you need
The cost of a fire alarm installation may range from as low as a few dollars to hundreds or thousands of dollars. Of course, installing one simple alarm won’t cost you much, but installing a complex fire alarm system for a multi-story or industrial structure is bound to be costly due to the required number of devices, wiring, electrical skill and labour. The cost is often tailored to the nature of the working environment as well and the kind of fire alarm system you intend to purchase.

There are many kinds of fire alarms from photoelectric alarms to ionisation smoke alarms. There are also commercial alarm system installations that can be customised and retrofitted based on the fire code requirements of your property. So consult a fire safety expert to determine how many fire alarm devices you need for coverage, or if you need one with a control panel system or other safety features.
Maintenance is key
A well-maintained fire alarm system has a reliable power source which means the batteries are working and checked periodically. If it’s hardwired to the main line, a professional fire alarm installer will make sure it’s safely connected. A responsible fire safety expert can make sure your fire alarms are working at its best through proper installation and maintenance.
