Fire Panels – Supply, Installation & Fault Finding
Fire panels serve as the central hub of your building’s fire detection and alarm system. They collect signals from smoke detectors, heat sensors, manual call points, and alarms, then activate alerts and initiate the appropriate safety responses. At FCF Fire & Electrical, we supply, install, service, and repair all major fire panel types to ensure your detection system remains reliable, responsive, and fully compliant with Australian Standards. Our technicians provide ongoing maintenance and rapid support to keep your building protected around the clock.
Compliance You Can Trust
To operate safely and legally, fire detection and alarm systems must follow AS1670, the Australian Standard that governs their setup and ongoing maintenance. These guidelines ensure your alarms are installed correctly, respond quickly, and work smoothly with other building safety systems. Staying compliant with AS1670 is also key for passing building audits, securing council approvals, and keeping your property properly protected from fire risks.

FAQs
How often should fire panels be tested or serviced?
Fire panels should be serviced every 6 months in line with AS1851, with some systems requiring additional checks depending on building risk levels.
What are the signs my fire panel needs maintenance?
Warning lights, persistent faults, beeping alarms, communication errors, or devices failing to report back to the panel are common signs maintenance is needed.
Can FCF upgrade or replace older fire panels?
Yes. FCF can upgrade outdated systems, replace faulty panels, and install modern, compliant units that integrate with existing fire equipment.
Do you provide compliance documentation after servicing?
Absolutely. You will receive full documentation, including service reports, testing results, defect notices, and compliance records for audits.
What happens during a fire panel inspection?
A technician checks inputs from detectors, tests outputs such as alarms, reviews fault logs, verifies wiring and battery health, and ensures the system meets AS1670 and AS1851 requirements.
