Importance of regular inspection of Fire Dampers Nsw

A very good way of protecting large buildings and facilities from deadly fire is installation, inspection as well as maintenance of Fire Dampers Nsw and smoke. Unfortunately, with exception of clinics and hospitals, that have fire damper and smoke inspection enforced by the authorities and the other regulatory firms, a lot of facilities don’t inspect the dampers every 4 years as asked.
The long term facilities, nursing homes, hotels, office buildings, schools, college campus, etc. are equally important. These facilities are also at the risk of facing devastating fire at the hospitals, yet fire and smoke dampers are scrutinised frequently.
Why do these facilities not conduct regular inspections?
The main reasons why these facilities do not conduct regular inspection of the fire fighting devices is often a lack of the manpower in management department of the building. This department is responsible for preventing right inspections. In the perfect world, you can easily prevent fire from even starting. However, you would realise that it’s completely impossible. The best defence is containing fire for long enough for occupants of the building to have sufficient time for escaping and preventing the structural loss. Regular antennae of these fire safety equipment helps in doing this.
It is very important to inspect the fire fighting devices. It is as important as having these equipment in place. Not maintaining them properly is as good as not having them at all. So if you wish to install them in your office or house, make sure you get them inspected regularly too.
