Local Fire-fighting System
Our fire-fighting and fire prevention systems are essential for ensuring safety and protecting the life of the crew on board and property on your ships. These systems definitely require regular and proper maintenance to ensure their reliable operation in case of emergency. However, increasing troubles on the systems recently reported to us suggest that they are not always properly maintained. This document is to remind you of the typical consequences the lack of maintenance could have and of the importance of maintenance to keep the system sound and operable.
The negligence of the maintenance could lead to the failure of the system operation when needed and pose considerable risks to human life or property. Since these systems serve as the last resort for safety protection, you are kindly requested to review the maintenance arrangement to ensure their reliable operation.
