FIGHT REAL NOT FALSE FIRES S


afety is the number one priority for any business owner and one of the most important aspects of a robust security solution is a fire alarm system. But did you know, in 2011 it was reported that more than 60% of calls or alerts to the Northern Ireland Fire Service were false alarms?


And an outstanding 97 per cent of these false alarm calls were due to faulty fire detection apparatus. Such false alarms make up over a third of all incidents attended, wasting the valuable resources of local emergency services and businesses. To help harness your businessʼs fire security solution and minimise the risk of false alarms it is important when choosing a fire security provider, you select a partner whose system can eliminate any ʻfalse firesʼ immediately but detect ʻreal firesʼ, with innovative technology backed up with a reliable around the clock service.
