Fire alarm installation without losing a working day
Installation time is mostly decided before anybody arrives. A survey that settles the specification in advance is what allows an install to be completed in one working day rather than spread across several visits.
Why installation usually costs trading time
Traditional installation work involves cable routes, drilling and repeated attendance. In a shop, a salon or a surgery, that time is takings or cancelled appointments.
It is also the usual reason an owner postpones dealing with a system they already know needs attention.
What decides how long it takes
The first item does most of the work. An install day spent deciding what to install is not an install day.
- Whether the specification was settled before the install day
- How the premises is laid out and how it is used
- Whether anything unexpected is found once work starts
- How the work is scheduled around opening hours
How FirePulse plans it
The survey establishes the specification in advance and the day is agreed around the business rather than around us. Where the approved FirePulse installation applies, the work is completed in one working day. Open at 9, compliant by 5.
If the survey finds something that changes that, you hear it before installation day, not on it.
