Guest Caroline Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Could you confirm that if a fire panel is installed in a rented premises then is it regulation/statue that it must be maintained by the landlord in a working condition at all times?

Tom Sutton Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 I assume because you refer to a fire panel the premises is flats and the fire alarm system protects the common areas, it is not a rented private single dwelling. If this is so the landlord is the Responsible Person which makes him/her responsible for the fire safety in the common areas which would include maintenance of the fire alarm system always.

AnthonyB Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 If on the other hand it is a commercial premises and the system doesn't serve shared space and only your demise then under the terms of your lease & by virtue of your control of the workplace as an employer it will be your responsibility to maintain.
