Our Fire Penetration Audit, Inspection and Maintenance team can help you achieve compliance.

We will come and complete a visual inspection  of your  fire protection systems to identify if the system has been altered, damaged or compromised.

Then we can:

•  Replace or repair defective components to keep fire protection systems in working order according to the original specification.
• Carry out preventative maintenance to ensure all AS are always met.
• Prepare a maintenance record of the work.

After completing your inspection, we will forward to you, a comprehensive report outlining the current condition of the penetrations detailing any repairs, that are required to comply with AS and a quote to carry out any repairs.

(b) restore a fire protection system to its original operating specifications; or
(c) alter a fire protection system; or
(d) provide an installer’s statement in relation to the work
Example: Where the fire system is altered from its original design specifications by way of replacing with components of different specifications, it is installation.

Installer’s statement means
A statement about the installation of a fire protection system.

Maintain

(a) inspect and test a fire protection system and any other fire safety measures to ensure continued operation at their original performance levels and in accordance with any relevant Australian Standards; or
