Fire Risk Assessment.

Zoomup
Good morning all,


 What qualifications does a fire risk assessor have to have to be competent, and to be able to comply legally with his designs for fire alarm systems etc?


My customer is getting in a bloke to carry out a fire risk assessment prior to installing smoke/heat/CO alarms in a rental holiday cottage.


Can just any old unqualified body claim to be a fire risk assessor, like estate agents that need no formal qualifications?


Thanks,


Z.

    The fire risk assessor specifies the grade and types of alarm system, they don’t design the layout and electrical installation.


    Are you saying that the fire risk assessor is not responsible for the positioning of the various detectors?




    thats right, you would need a fire alarm designer for that
