Buildings with hydrants, sprinklers and fire pumps need one agency to keep the whole system ready, and the fire authority and insurer want the records. A fire fighting AMC format sets out every system, visit and response in one contract. Download the Word file below and have it reviewed before first use. Frequencies follow the applicable standards and your local fire authority.
Fire fighting AMC format: clauses
- Parties, site and period.
- Systems covered (Annexure A): hydrant and hose reels, sprinklers, fire pumps (main, jockey, diesel), fire alarm, extinguishers with counts.
- Preventive visits: frequency per system, with the checklists attached (hydrant, fire alarm, extinguishers).

Keep it running
ServicePilot keeps each system's equipment on the client's site, creates AMC visits per system and lists what is due. For extinguisher-only contracts use the fire extinguisher AMC agreement format.
