A Fire in a London Restaurant may have been caused by a pizza oven coming into contact with a wall, which caused a smouldering Fire. The Flats above were not damaged but it does support the need for both premises to have a Fire Safety Risk Assessment.
It is a requirement that both the Restaurant
and the Communal
Area of the Flats above have a Fire Safety Risk Assessment. As part of the
Co-operation and Co-ordination section of the Fire Safety Risk Assessment the
Restaurant should consider the Flats Fire Safety Risk Assessment and vice versa.
Compartmentation, integrity and separation is just
one of the key things to consider because if a Fire breaks out in one premise
it could affect the other. A ‘suitable and sufficient’ Fire Safety Risk
Assessment will consider this plus ignition sources, people at risk, means of
escape, detection and alarm and much more.
If you have a London Restaurant or you live in
a Flat above a commercial premise and you need a Fire Safety Risk Assessment,
then contact London Fire Risk Assessments.
