Term 4 is nearly here, and that means classrooms, halls and corridors filling back up with students, staff and visitors.

It's also a good time to check that the alarm systems designed to keep them safe are ready to do their job.

If it's been a while since your school's fire safety systems were checked, now's the time, before the new term brings everyone back through the doors.

It's easy to assume the basics are covered until you actually check.

Are your exits clear? Extinguishers accessible and in date? Are alarms and emergency lighting working as they should?

We've put together a simple self-check that every Northland and Auckland business can run through in a few minutes.

Read the full checklist on our blog: https://fireco.co.nz/articles/fire-safety/how-prepared-is-your-business-for-a-fire/

Myth: "All extinguishers work on every type of fire."

Fact: Different fires need different extinguishers, and using the wrong one can make things worse, not better.

Fires are classified by what's fuelling them: ordinary combustibles like wood and paper, flammable liquids, electrical equipment, and cooking oils and fats all behave differently when they burn.

A water extinguisher on an electrical fire risks electrocution. Water on a hot oil or fat fire can cause it to flare up violently rather than put it out. That's why extinguishers are designed and labelled for specific fire types, not as a one-size-fits-all solution.

We’re proud to be part of CDL Group Ltd, and even prouder to be part of a community where local businesses and local sport can come together.

Rivez Reihana, Jordan Hutchings, Nathan Salmon, Marcel Renata and Sam Nock were absolute legends to work with. There were plenty of laughs on set, and they were great sports throughout the whole shoot.

Thanks to the Northland Taniwha team for getting involved and helping us bring this one to life!

Ben joined Fireco in 2017 as a technician, working on the tools and out in the field with our customers. In 2021, he stepped into the role of Manager, before becoming Director of Fireco in 2023.

Having worked his way through the business, Ben has gained a strong understanding of the fire safety industry from the ground up and a real appreciation for the work our team does every day.

Ben is passionate about Fireco, the fire safety industry and, most importantly, the people behind the business. As a leader, he is committed to supporting the team, delivering a high standard of service to our customers and continuing to build a strong future for Fireco. He’s proud of how far the company has come and excited about what lies ahead.

Originally from South Africa, Ben moved to New Zealand in 2002 and now proudly calls New Zealand home. Outside of work, Ben enjoys spending time with his young family, especially heading to the beach.

He’s also a keen motocross rider and loves getting out on the bike whenever he gets the chance. When he’s not on two wheels, you might find him on the golf course - and by his own account, he’s not too bad! He also played his fair share of rugby in his younger days.

Fun facts:
- Speaks both English and Afrikaans fluently
- His go-to coffee is a flat white.
- Just as comfortable on a motocross bike as he is in the Director’s chair... although one comes with a lot more mud!

BWOF paperwork can be confusing, especially when you’re dealing with Forms 12 and 12A.

In simple terms, Form 12A is issued by an Independent Qualified Person (IQP) to confirm that the specified systems they’re responsible for have been inspected, maintained and reported on in accordance with the building’s compliance schedule.

Form 12 is the Building Warrant of Fitness issued by the building owner (or their authorised agent), confirming that the building’s specified systems have been inspected, maintained and reported on as required, with the relevant Form 12As attached.

Fireco helps building owners navigate the process, coordinating fire safety servicing and working with our trusted IQP network to help keep inspections and documentation on track.

It’s easy to put off fire safety issues when everything else on your to-do list feels more urgent.

A faulty alarm. An overdue service. A damaged extinguisher. An issue picked up during an inspection that can be fixed “later”... but small issues don’t always stay small.

Putting off maintenance can turn a straightforward repair into a bigger, more expensive problem - and when BWOF renewal time comes around, you could be left trying to resolve multiple issues at once.

Regular servicing and inspections help catch problems early, keep your fire protection systems working as they should, and make staying on top of your compliance requirements much easier.

Ever wondered what our technicians are actually doing when they’re on site servicing a fire alarm system?

There’s more to it than pressing a button and waiting for the alarm to sound!

During a service, our technicians inspect and test the different components of the system, including the control panel, smoke and heat detectors, manual call points, sounders, warning devices and any other connected equipment.

They check for anything that could affect the system’s performance and test that signals are being received correctly.

They’ll also review the system for any issues that need attention and record the results of the service, helping to keep the system maintained and your compliance requirements on track.

Regular servicing means potential problems can be picked up early, rather than finding out there’s an issue when you actually need the alarm to work.

Need your fire alarm system serviced? Get in touch with the Fireco team today.

Fire extinguishers are one of the first lines of defence in an emergency, but only if they're properly maintained.

Over time, extinguishers can lose pressure, become damaged, or no longer meet compliance requirements if they're not maintained.

Regular servicing not only helps keep your building compliant but also provides peace of mind that your equipment will perform as intended in an emergency.

Fireco can help with scheduled maintenance to keep your fire protection equipment compliant and ready to perform: https://fireco.co.nz/services/equipment-supply-and-service/

If your commercial building has a fire alarm system, chances are it also has a Fire Indicator Panel.

A Fire Indicator Panel is the control centre of your building's fire detection system. It monitors connected smoke detectors, heat detectors and manual call points, identifies where an alarm or fault has occurred, and provides vital information for occupants, technicians and Fire and Emergency New Zealand if they're responding to an incident.

Like any critical fire safety system, a Fire Indicator Panel requires regular inspection and maintenance to ensure it's operating correctly and remains compliant with your building's Compliance Schedule.

At Fireco, we inspect, service and maintain Fire Indicator Panels as part of our commercial fire protection services, helping keep your building safe, compliant and prepared.
