If your
burglar or fire alarm is not
working properly, KSHO Alarm Service is the answer
to your problems. You could always change out
the system at a very high cost or you can call us.
In most cases we can repair or replace those old
boards for a low charge. We have serviced a
number of different types of panels. Our business
is repair. This saves time and money. We provide
a
30 day warranty
period for all repairs we perform.
Service is
essential for maintaining your system, and should be carried
out each year. For example the re chargeable batteries in
both the control box and the bell box do have a limited
life. These should be changed every three years. They should
also be checked every year to ensure the charge circuits are
working and that the batteries are functioning correctly.
Batteries are
fitted in both the control panel and bell box. These are
rechargeable and both the battery condition and charge
circuits should be checked annually. If not the alarm may
not work in power cut conditions (just when a burglar may
call). The batteries used are a special standby type which
deteriorate over time. It is recommended that they be
changed every three years.
Voltages and
resistance measurements should be taken for each detector
annually, this provides information to detect early
deterioration of the system.
Walk testing
the system ensures every detector is working correctly and
that it has not been moved, or replaced incorrectly say
during decorating or home improvements. It has been known
for detectors to be painted or wall papered over rendering
them useless.
Optional Mains
testing can be carried out ensure your continued safety,
when fitted the mains spur is installed to IEE regulations
and earth loop impedances have to meet certain criteria. If
for any reason this alters there could be a risk of electric
shock. Annually checking this ensures your continued safety.
Advice on
upgrading your system after building alterations, or advice
on the latest security developments can be given by our
engineers during these visits.
