Not least for the emergency services, who could be called out for no reason if your alarm system is automated. We should all do what we can to make certain that the Fire Services are free to deal with real emergencies.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If false alarms occur very often, they can have a real and disruptive effect upon your business and productivity. The additional negative impact can be that if you have too many false alarms, the Fire Services will not respond without a specific manual request. That is not great news if you ever have a real fire.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A false alarm may be a symptom of a fault on your system, so they should never be ignored. If you can't find the cause of an alarm activation, it is always best to call in an engineer to investigate the problem. The last thing you'll need is for the exact same thing to happen a day or two later because of same small fault. Even worse, it may be a signal that an element of the alarm isn't properly functioning, which could have a serious impact within the event of a real fire, allowing the fire to spread much more than it otherwise might.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Many false alarms are caused by people in the building not being aware that a fire alarm system is in place, or at least not comprehending the types of thing that may activate the fire alarm. You can deal with these by way of a few simple procedures:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ensure staff and visitors know that your building is protected by an automatic fire alarm system&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Make these facts part of your induction training and fire safety training for all staff.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Have prominent notices up at all main entrances to your workplace. Use the following wording: &quot;These premises are protected by an automatic fire alarm system. Please obtain permission from the site manager before undertaking any work involving flame, smoke, heat or sparks.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ensure that no-one carries out any 'hot works' without permission from the Well being as well as Safety Representative, fire Marshall, or whoever has responsibility for authorising such works&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Staff need to know that any work involving flame, smoke, heat or sparks must have special permission.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Build this into staff training and ensure it really is included in staff manuals, operating plans, etc.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Have a Hot Works Permit system or similar mechanism to make certain that contractors working on site follow your safe working procedures.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Build this requirement into contracts with any contractors whom shall undertake work on the premises.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ensure that no work involving the generation of dust or the utilization of spray paint is done in an area with smoke detectors in, unless the detectors are properly protected.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Make sure that someone has specific personal responsibility for going through this as well as similar matters.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If possible, smoke detectors can be replaced with heat detectors, but only by a qualified engineer.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The alternative to swapping to heat detectors is to cover and protect the smoke detectors through the period of work (with paper, plastic, etc).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;This certainly will not be done lightly, as covered smoke detectors will clearly not work correctly, if at all, within the event of a real fire.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The matter should be risk assessed, and alternative means of detection put in place (for example a person within the area with specific [https://www.egresadosudistrital.edu.co/virtualcourses/profile/charlesmeyers Fire Watch Services]-watching brief through the period of works).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Make certain that somebody has the specific personal responsibility for removing the covering from the detectors in the event the work is finished. It's vital that this is done promptly to ensure that the alarm system is fully functional straight away.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Make certain that the fire alarm system is tested after the work is completed, to guarantee that it really is functioning correctly.</div>
