Personally, I have now stopped doing any Fire with a sleeping risk now... rarely find a compliant install and have found most owners are looking at the bottom line for compliance. 

 

Seen some real gash over the last few year, 1 zone covering 9 flats on 4 floors to no services for 12 years plus... work on the opinion now that if the owner has that little respect for fire safety I am not interested.

 

So, on that cheery note... Dont quote it with out a walk around of each site, open some panels have a look at whats what, check the paperwork on site to see what order its in....cover you **** or risk getting it ****** when you drop the soap!

i have said they need to do alot of alterations to some of the buildings as they dont comply which they are happy to do.. 

 

I will just say they need to continue to have the four services a year..

BS5839 part 1 recommends four service visits per annum, but this can be reduced to a minimum of two visits depending on the risk and size of the system.

Peter hits the nail.

Do you really want to recommend 2 with sleeping on site?

I know you have said your gonna stick with 4 but in some cases it may warrant more than.
