Preventative Maintenance
The Environmental Health, Local councils and Insurance companies recommend that an alarm is serviced regularly. If an alarm activates whilst you are away from your home or business and key holders cannot be traced and the alarm has been sounding for over an hour, the Environmental Health have powers to obtain a warrant to enter the property and de-activate the alarm. The cost of this work can run into hundreds, to cover the costs of Environmental Health agent, Alarm Engineer, Locksmith.
