Vital Protection
The importance of fire protection can never be underestimated. Fire can have a devastating impact on lives, local communities, economy and the environment and insurers pay out more than £3million every day for damage caused by fires.
For commercial operations already facing difficult trading times, the cost is not just the initial damage to property. There will be inevitable loss of business and there could be compensation claims and increased insurance premiums. Arson, which tends to increase during a recession, accounts for half of all commercial fires.
A fire alarm plays a vital role in saving lives and minimising the effects of a fire, but needs to be carefully chosen to suit the premises and correctly serviced and maintained.
