For a fixed ext. system not pre-engineered, which professionals are allowed to service the system?

For a fixed extinguishing system that is not pre-engineered, the servicing must typically be conducted by individuals who have the appropriate licensing and training specific to the tasks required. Both Type A and Type PL licensees are trained and certified to work on such systems. Type A licensees generally possess a broad range of experience in fire protection and fire systems, while Type PL licensees have specialized skills often focused on particular types of systems or installation techniques.

By allowing both types of licensees to service these systems, the regulations ensure that individuals working on these critical safety mechanisms have a comprehensive understanding of diverse aspects of fire protection systems, ensuring that the systems are installed and maintained correctly to uphold safety standards. This versatility also provides a wider pool of qualified professionals to keep these systems in optimal working condition, which is essential for fire safety and compliance with regulations.
