What Does BS 5839-1 Recommend? ✔️ Weekly Testing: Regular checks to confirm alarms are operationa in the event of a fire. ✔️ Periodic Inspections: Professional servicing at least every 6 months to test the system and address any faults. ✔️ Comprehensive Records: A logbook of tests, inspections, and any repairs to demonstrate compliance.
