Apartment and housing complex managers are responsible for keeping the building's fire safety equipment in working order. The list below summarises the basic points to review during regular checks. Full maintenance should always be carried out by a technical service.
Fire extinguishers
Check that extinguishers are in place, easy to reach and unobstructed. Make sure the gauge needle is in the green zone and the safety pin and seal are intact. Keep track of the date on the service label.
Fire hose cabinets
Check that cabinets are not blocked, their doors open, and the hose and nozzle are in place.
Fire pump and line
Make sure the pump room is clean and accessible and the pump's control panel is switched on and set to automatic. Report any leaks or pressure loss in the line to your service provider.
Escape routes
Check that stairwells, fire doors and exits are not blocked by belongings, and that fire doors close on their own.
Documents and records
Keep maintenance and inspection records in order; knowing when each piece of equipment was last serviced makes planning the next service easier.
