Understanding Your Fire Safety Needs
At NOVA Engineering and Consulting Ltd, we guide you through selecting the right fire alarm systems to protect your property. Our expertise ensures compliance with BAFE SP203-1 and BS 5839-1 standards, meeting legal and safety obligations effectively.
Why Fire Alarms Are Essential
Fire alarms save lives by providing early warnings for evacuation and are mandated by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. The right system enhances safety and reduces property damage, offering critical peace of mind.
Who Needs a Fire Alarm System?
Under UK regulations, fire detection is required for all non-residential premises, including:
• Property Managers: Responsible for shared spaces in HMOs, flats, or maisonettes.
• Business Owners: Operating commercial buildings with staff or visitors.
• Facilities with Risks: Sites with vulnerable occupants (e.g., elderly, disabled), high-risk substances (e.g., chemicals), or activities (e.g., cooking).
• Multi-Storey or Complex Structures: Where a shout of “fire!” won’t be heard by all. A basic smoke or heat alarm may suffice for small, simple, open-plan spaces with no risks. However, if your Fire Risk Assessment identifies hazards, a comprehensive system is essential. Let NOVA assess your needs.
Choosing the Right Solution
The ideal system depends on your premises. Our accredited team designs tailored solutions, ensuring compliance with British Standards Institution (BSI) requirements. Look for UKAS-validated certification (e.g., NSI, SSAIB) and Third Party Certification (e.g., LPCB LPS1014, BAFE SP203-1) for proven expertise.
