Basic fire service installations in the building generally include hose reels, fire extinguishers, fire alarm systems or automatic sprinkler systems available on each floor.
These installations are provided for giving alarms in case of fire and containing or extinguishing fire.
To ensure that these installations work efficiently at all times, a registered fire service installation contractor should be employed by the owners' corporation (OC) to inspect and maintain them at least once every twelve months.
When the fire service installations are found not working properly or damaged, a registered contractor should be employed immediately to inspect and repair them.
If there is any doubt about the qualification of fire service installation contractor, the OC can consult the Fire Protection Facilities Supervision Division of Licensing and Certification Command of the Fire Services Department at 2733 1567.
