Pre-Fire Planning

For certain building types such as residential care facilities such as Hospitals, Day Hospitals & Nursing Homes, Local Fire Authorities are now requiring Pre-Fire Planning drawings to be submitted to them by premises occupiers (management).
This vital information gives the fire brigade (operational) the information critical to them on arriving to an incident such as the access routes, fire hydrant positions, provision of protected corridors etc,
AFEC produce these drawings and liaises with the local fire authority to ensure they are satisfied with the information.
