Fire Safety Services in Wakad

Keeping Wakad’s high-rise societies fire-ready

Wakad has grown into one of the densest residential areas in Pimpri-Chinchwad, with tall housing societies, commercial complexes along the Mumbai–Bengaluru highway, hospitals, schools and a busy retail strip. It falls within PCMC limits, so fire safety approvals and renewals are handled by the PCMC fire department.

For most housing societies the fire system is built by the developer and then handed over to a managing committee that may not have technical support. Over time, jockey pumps start cycling, diesel pumps are not run, hose reel drums jam, and the six-monthly Form B certificate is missed. FIRENET works with society committees and facility managers to bring systems back to working order and keep them there with a clear, affordable AMC.

What matters for Wakad premises

• Form B certificates: owners and occupiers are required to submit a certificate from a Licensed Agency twice a year (January and July) under the Maharashtra Fire Prevention and Life Safety Measures Act, 2006 — we inspect, fix and certify.
• Pump rooms: diesel pumps that are never run and jockey pumps cycling due to leaks are the most common faults we find in societies.
• Terrace and underground tanks: fire water reserve must not be drawn down for domestic use.
• Basement parking: extinguishers, lighting of exits and sprinkler coverage need regular checks; EV charging areas need suitable extinguishers.
• Shops and clinics: correct extinguisher types, service tags and staff awareness are usually what inspectors check first.
