Here at Ultrasafe Fire Suppression, your safety is our priority. We ensure that the systems we service are fully compliant with the latest safety regulations, helping you maintain peace of mind. If your premises utilize pressure vessels, it’s crucial to perform the Ten-Year Hydrostatic Stretch and Pressure Test, which is mandatory for all cylinders operating above 0.5 Bar. For your fire sprinkler system, the operating pressure is 12 Bar.
Why Re-certification Matters
Ensuring that your fire sprinkler system is up-to-date with current regulations is critical to guaranteeing its effectiveness during an emergency. Regular pressure testing not only enhances your fire protection but also ensures compliance with legal obligations, safeguarding both lives and property.
