How Often Should An Alarm System Be Maintained?

Maintaining fire and intruder alarm systems is essential to ensure their reliability and effectiveness in protecting your property.

For fire alarm systems, British Standard BS 5839, under which fire alarm systems must be compliant, typically recommend regular maintenance intervals of at least once every six months. This frequency ensures that all components of the system are functioning correctly, including smoke detectors, control panels, and alarm notification devices.

Intruder alarm systems, on the other hand, typically require maintenance on an annual basis. Clause 3.2 of British Standard BS 4737 states that preventative maintenance visits for remote signalling intruder alarms should occur at least semi-annually. For audible-only intruder alarms using mains and rechargeable battery standby power, preventative maintenance should be carried out at least once a year.

Things to Consider:

The frequency of maintenance may vary depending on factors such as the level of risk to the property and any specific requirements outlined by insurance providers or regulatory authorities.


Regardless of the specific schedule, regular maintenance is crucial for both fire and intruder alarm systems to detect any issues early on and ensure prompt response in the event of an emergency.
