Frequently Asked Questions

What type of fire alarm system is best for my Ipswich property?

The optimal fire alarm system depends on your property size, layout, and occupancy type. For most Ipswich residential properties, we recommend addressable systems that provide precise location identification. Commercial premises typically benefit from more sophisticated detection technology with integrated monitoring services. Our engineers conduct thorough site assessments to determine the most suitable fire alarm configuration for your specific requirements.

British Standard BS 5839 requires annual servicing for most fire alarm installations, though some commercial systems may need more frequent maintenance. Our Ipswich-based engineers provide comprehensive service visits that include sensor cleaning, battery testing, control panel inspection, and full system functionality checks. Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and helps maintain insurance compliance for your property.

Most fire alarm installations don’t require planning permission, as they’re considered essential safety equipment. However, listed buildings or properties in conservation areas around Ipswich may have specific requirements regarding external sounder placement or cable routing. We handle all necessary consultations with local authorities and ensure installations comply with Suffolk County Council regulations where applicable.

 

When your monitored fire alarm system activates, our control centre immediately receives the signal and follows pre-agreed response procedures. This typically includes contacting designated keyholders and, if confirmed, alerting Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service. For unmonitored systems, the local sounders activate to alert occupants and neighbours. We provide clear guidance on emergency procedures during the handover process to ensure you know exactly what to expect.
