Lee Posted January 13, 2018 Report Share Posted January 13, 2018 Need advise on this guys, one of my clients are a small business and are based in a old school building. There is a boiler and server unit situated in a large store room with extensive fire loading. Im not talking about the fire loading here but the boiler is fixed to the wall. It is regularly serviced and secure but should this be in a room on its own which is fire protected? Also ref the server, it has a door missing and is very dusty inside, your opinion on that please?

Tom Sutton Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 The boiler will be an ignition risk and if it can ignite material close by then you need to put control measures in place. The server will be vital to the business and should be protected for the sake of business continuity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted January 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Thanks Tom, what is the fire risk of a server unit? this is the size of a single wardrobe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sutton Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 If it is well serviced it would be normal but if it is the damage by a fire it could lose data which could be vital to the owner and could be catastrophic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
