Routine Inspection & Testing

Fire and OWS

Fire Alarm Systems
A building’s Fire and Smoke Alarm System is a critical component of the site’s Life Safety Equipment.
These systems are designed to detect fire and combustion products in an emergency situation and alert building occupants to initiate evacuation and to notify the Fire Department that a fire situation either exists or potentially may exist within the building.
These systems incorporate Smoke Detectors, Heat Detectors and Manual Call Points, plus Audible Alarm Devices such as Sounders or Speakers in the case of Voice Communication Systems.

The Australian Fire Code mandates that regular Annual Inspection, Repair and Maintenance on the Fire Alarm & Emergency Voice Communication Systems be completed by suitably qualified firms and technicians.

Aztech Fire Protection offers the most technologically advanced systems available, including conventional fire and smoke detection, flame and water detection, high-sensitivity air sampling detectors, and the latest in analogue addressable detection technology.
Aztech Fire Protection also provides complete annual Inspection & testing, as well as remedial repair work to correct deficiencies in existing fire and smoke alarm systems, plus a 24hour emergency service.

Occupant Warning Systems

Emergency Warning and Evacuation Systems are a critical element of a life safety system.

These systems are designed to facilitate the orderly evacuation of a building in the event of an emergency. The system is comprised of speakers, special phone points and break-glass alarms distributed throughout a building or site. The central panel allows the Chief Warden or Fire Authority to manage the evacuation process.

The evacuation system is triggered either by a connected fire alarm panel (having detected smoke), or by a person activating the break-glass alarm. An automatic evacuation process will then proceed via a series of warning sirens sounding in relevant areas.
Appropriate training of wardens is required to manage the evacuation of people during this time.

Aztech Fire Protection supply, install, service, test and maintain evacuation systems, as well as providing appropriate training services.
