Fire Alarm Servicing in Wexford

ADS Group services and certifies commercial fire detection and alarm systems across County Wexford to I.S. 3218. The M11 runs from our Dublin 24 base into the county, and servicing is quarterly with an annual certificate for the full system. Wexford's seasonal trading pattern changes one thing in particular: when the work should be done, rather than what the work is.

What matters for Wexford buildings

Seasonal premises should be serviced before the season

Quarterly servicing is required all year either way. What a seasonal operator controls is which visit carries the remedial work, and that should be the one before the building fills up. Finding eleven failed devices in July is a different problem from finding them in March.

Buildings that sit idle develop different faults

A premises closed for months comes back with flat standby batteries, damp-affected devices and detectors that have collected dust in an empty building. Those are predictable and worth catching at the pre-season visit rather than on the first busy weekend.

Port and logistics premises are a height problem

Warehousing around Rosslare and the county's distribution premises put storage well above the reach of ceiling detection. High-bay buildings usually need beam or aspirating detection designed for the height, and the design has to be revisited when racking changes.

What the visit includes

  • Quarterly inspection and test of the full system by a competent person, to I.S. 3218
  • Panel, batteries, zones, sounders, call points and detectors checked and logged
  • Standby battery condition tested, which is the usual failure in a seasonally closed building
  • Detection reviewed against storage height and current racking layout where relevant
  • Annual certificate for the full system, with non-conformances listed in writing
  • 24/7 emergency callout, every day of the year

Full detail on the system types, the standards and the certification process is on the Fire Detection & Alarms page, and everything else we cover in the county is on the Wexford page.

Frequently asked questions

When should a seasonal premises be serviced?
Quarterly servicing runs all year, but the visit that matters most is the one before the season opens, because that is when remedial work can be done while the building is quiet.
Our premises was closed for the winter. What usually needs attention?
Standby batteries most often, along with damp-affected devices and dust in detectors. A building that has been idle develops a predictable set of faults, which is why the pre-season visit is worth scheduling deliberately.
Do you cover Rosslare and the port area?
Yes, along with Wexford town, Gorey, Enniscorthy and New Ross, for installation, servicing, certification and 24/7 emergency callout.
