Fire risk assessments in Tralee

Under the Fire Services Acts 1981 and 2003 (section 18(2)), the person in control of a premises must take reasonable measures to guard against fire and to protect people if one occurs. The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 also requires employers to manage risks to employees. A fire risk assessment looks at fire hazards, escape routes, detection and alarms, emergency lighting, extinguishers, housekeeping and procedures, and gives you a written report with practical actions.

Legionella risk assessments and sampling in Tralee

Legionella bacteria can grow in water systems that are warm, stagnant or poorly maintained. A Legionella risk assessment reviews your water systems and recommends control measures in line with the HPSC National Guidelines for the Control of Legionellosis in Ireland (2009). Sampling tests the water, with samples analysed by an independent accredited laboratory. See our Legionella risk assessments and sampling and the guide to sampling versus risk assessment.

Water tank cleaning and disinfection

Cold water storage tanks that are dirty or poorly covered can contribute to Legionella risk. We clean and disinfect tanks where needed. Find out why tank cleaning and disinfection matters.

Fire extinguishers

We supply and maintain fire extinguishers, including annual servicing. See fire extinguisher sales and maintenance.

Frequently asked questions

Do you cover Tralee and Co. Kerry?

Yes. We work across Ireland, including Tralee and the surrounding area.

What is the difference between a Legionella risk assessment and sampling?

A risk assessment reviews your water system and identifies risks and control measures. Sampling tests the water for Legionella bacteria. Many premises need both.

How often should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?

It should be reviewed regularly and whenever the premises, occupancy or layout changes significantly. We can advise on what suits your building.

Tralee at a glance: fire and water safety for local premises

Tralee is the county town of Kerry and had 26,079 people in the 2022 Census. Visitor trade, summer festivals and a busy calendar of events mean that hotels, guesthouses, pubs and restaurants here can be packed one week and quiet the next. Both swings matter: crowded premises need clear escape routes and staff who know the plan, while rooms and facilities that sit unused for weeks need a Legionella routine that covers rarely used taps and showers.

Our guides on Legionella in part-time premises, clubs, halls and holiday lets and flushing little-used outlets explain what to do and what to record. Your local fire authority is Kerry County Council’s fire service. Contact us for a free written quote.
