SANS 10400, which is a legal standard states" Any owner of any building who fails to maintain any provisions made to satisfy the requirements of sub regulation (T)1(1) (e) shall be guilty of an offence". (T) 1(1) (e) states "adequate means of access and equipment for detecting, fighting and extinguishing such fire is provided".
In short, by law the building owner has to maintain his fire systems or be liable for prosecution.
