Four levels. One daily fee. Nothing upfront.
Every level carries the same monitored wireless fire alarm, the same 24/7 monitoring, the same four inspections a year and the same certification. The only thing that changes as you move up the ladder is how many certified extinguishers your premises needs.
Pick the level that matches your premises
There are four levels: Core, Shield, Sentinel and Command. Every level includes the same monitored wireless fire alarm, 24/7 monitoring, four inspections a year and all certification. The level you need is decided by how many certified extinguishers your premises requires, and nothing else.

"Could I not just buy the system and be done with it?"
You could, and some owners should. If you have the capital sitting there and you are happy to carry the servicing, the parts, the call outs and the replacement bill in ten years, buying outright is a perfectly reasonable decision and ADS Group will quote you for it.
What the plan buys you is different. You never pay for the replacement system. You never get a bill for a part or a call out. The compliance admin stops being your problem. And it is an operating cost rather than capital, so it does not compete with the chair, the van or the fit out you actually wanted to spend that money on.
What happens if you want out
Most complaints in this industry are not about the service. They are about what happens at cancellation: a fee nobody mentioned, a price rise nobody agreed to, a contract nobody can get out of.
So here are our exit terms, on the page, before you give us your phone number. The agreement runs for 5 years.
- On cancellation we either collect the equipment or switch the monitoring off. Your choice.
- There is no exit fee and no removal charge either way.
- The price is fixed for the term. We do not raise it partway through and tell you afterwards.
- You will never receive an invoice for a part, a battery or a call out. That is the whole point.
The things owners actually ask
What is the actual monthly cost?
It depends on how many extinguishers your premises needs. Core is €239 a month excluding VAT, Shield is €287, Sentinel is €356 and Command is €556. Those are the figures for a standard premises on a 5 year agreement. You get your exact figure in writing before you commit to anything.
Why is every price quoted excluding VAT?
Because a commercial premises reclaims it. Quoting the VAT inclusive figure would overstate what the plan actually costs your business, so every figure on this site is stated excluding VAT and says so.
What do I pay to get it installed?
Nothing. There is no deposit, no installation charge and no equipment cost. The daily fee starts once the system is in and certified.
Do I have to close while it is being fitted?
No. The system is wireless, so there is no channelling of walls and no rewiring. It goes in inside one day. Most of our customers keep trading right through the install.
Why is there a credit check?
Because we are installing several thousand euro of equipment at our own cost and recovering it over the term. A standard business credit check is part of the application, the same as any commercial lease or finance agreement. It has no effect on your personal credit rating.
If the check does not pass, we will still quote you to buy the system outright. You are not turned away.
What happens when the system gets old?
We replace it and the plan carries on. You never receive a bill for a replacement system. This is the part that people miss when they compare the plan to buying outright: the owner who buys pays again in roughly ten years, and the plan customer does not.
Does this actually make me compliant?
Yes, and it is in writing. Your compliance certificate is issued on the day of install against IS 3218:2024 for the alarm and IS 291 for the extinguishers, and reissued after each quarterly inspection. If anything is outstanding on the day, we keep working at no charge until it is cleared.
My alarm went in years ago and it still works. Do I need to do anything?
Possibly not, and we are not going to tell you otherwise to sell you something. What has changed is the standard. IS 3218:2024 raised the bar, and a lot of systems over ten years old will not meet it now. That is a reason to have it checked, not a reason to panic. The survey will tell you either way. There is a nominal survey charge, credited in full against your subscription if you go ahead, and the written report is yours to keep whatever you decide.
What areas do you cover?
FirePulse installs and inspections are carried out by ADS Group's own engineers, who service 1,300+ active contracts throughout Ireland and the UK. Ring us on 01 620 6758 with your Eircode and we will confirm cover for your premises.
Is it really from less than €10 a day?
Core starts at €7.87 a day excluding VAT, so yes. What moves the figure is the number of extinguishers the premises needs and the size of the detection specification, which is what the survey establishes.
