Remote Monitoring of Fire Alarm Systems

Some fire services systems are dependent on IT personnel to set them up or integrate them with existing systems.

With Remote Services, no technical expertise is required, as the system is pre-configured. Set up and commissioning takes just 30 minutes.

Issues can be identified quickly, and troubleshooting can be carried out in real time, making the process 25% more efficient.

Traditionally, fire alarm maintenance services are carried out on site or over the phone.
System conditions and update requirements are difficult to identify without direct access.
Maintenance reports generate laborious paperwork and process bottlenecks.

New remote connectivity offers transparency with easy-to-access data for predictive maintenance.

For optimal fire safety at commercial or industrial premises, fire detection equipment and fire sensors are installed on all floors and in all buildings and locations.

This presents logistical challenges for system integrators who can only be in one place at any time.

Remote connectivity helps overcome distance with real-time monitoring of all sites.

Two-thirds of issues can be solved remotely. This optimizes team efficiency and service provision, with significant cost savings.

Any faults in fire alarm systems must be identified and repaired quickly to provide reliable security and safety services. Frequent false alarms and downtime can reduce trust in the fire safety system.

Thanks to digitalization and the interconnectivity of Remote Services, faults are immediately identified.

System integrators are notified instantly by email or text message so critical situations can be responded to rapidly.

Customers feel more satisfied and safe with transparency of system conditions and less downtime.

The availability of technicians at any one time for on-site system configuration, maintenance and updates is always limited, and can vary.

On average, each system integrator is responsible for 88 monitoring systems.

Remote Services means each system integrator saves the time normally spent in transit between customer locations.

Business efficiency increases, with improved resource planning, and makes sure that the right devices are available at a maintenance call.

Shopping complexes are on multiple floors and comprise a mix of retail and food outlets, some of which can increase the risk of fire.

Round-the-clock, remote fire system surveillance can reassure safety managers that their fire alarms and smoke detectors are continually in good working order, even when the shops close.

The huge number of people passing through transport hubs, like airport and train stations at any one time, make it a necessity to monitor these areas closely for any risk of fire.

Remote Services ensures that appropriate alerts will be generated when needed.

Varying numbers of staff and guests can be present in hotel buildings around the clock. On-site kitchens, electrical equipment and cleaning substances are just some items presenting a fire risk.

Efficient, 24/7 remote control and monitoring of fire alarm systems is vital to human safety and protection of premises.

Cultural edifices, including museums, galleries, theaters, and concert halls contain precious artefacts or works of art, and valuable technical equipment – even before visitors or fans arrive.

Their surveillance with a continually well-functioning fire protection system is crucial, so any risk and emergency to human life, cultural assets or costs can be responded to instantly.

Remote control fire alarm systems enable this.

Employeesand contractors working varying shifts mean these industrial sites are occupied at all times. Hazardous substances, including chemicals, gases, dust, and combustible materials make the work environment a high-risk area for personnel and the environment.

Proactive fire prevention can benefit greatly with round-the-clock, fire alarm remote monitoring services.
