Why are False Alarms a Problem?
Posted on 30th Mar 2016 @ 11:33 PM
Here at RV Fire Systems we are often asked why false alarms are a problem.
The answer is simple: they cost money, disrupt business and risk lives.
False Alarms – The Cost to You
l Downtime from evacuations
l Disruption to production
l Annoyance to customers
l Possible Fire Service charges for attending
False Alarms – The Cost to Your Reputation
l They can make your company seem complacent about safety
l Possible; loss of confidence from staff and the fire service
l Risk of prosecution
Will the Fire & Rescue Service Attend?
You must check with your local Fire and Rescue Service whether your alarm will automatically trigger their attendance, and whether they charge for false activations, as policies vary across the UK.
