Fire safety that often reduces costs by 80% or more
Approved partner of Britannia Fire — delivering compliant, properly assessed fire safety for UK churches.
Most churches are paying more than they need to
Fire extinguisher servicing is one of those costs that arrives each year, gets paid, and nobody quite understands why it costs what it costs. There's rarely a clear explanation, and rarely a suggestion that anything could change.
For many churches, the current setup is a legacy arrangement — multiple extinguisher types, different maintenance cycles, and annual servicing visits that add up. The compliance situation is often unclear too: churches may have equipment that doesn't reflect their actual needs or building type.
- Annual servicing costs that arrive without explanation
- Multiple extinguisher types with different maintenance schedules
- Out-of-date equipment that may not be appropriate for the building
- Compliance uncertainty — not knowing if you're actually covered
- Generic assessments not tailored to church buildings
- Budget spent on maintenance rather than mission
A proper assessment, better equipment, and one bill every ten years
Churchnet works with Britannia Fire to audit your current fire safety setup, assess what your church building actually needs, and — where appropriate — replace traditional extinguishers with P50 foam units.
The P50 is a maintenance-free extinguisher with a ten-year service life. One unit replaces multiple traditional types. No annual call-out. No annual invoice. No compliance uncertainty.
For most churches, this means a significant reduction in ongoing fire safety costs — often 80% or more over the equipment's lifetime — while remaining fully compliant with UK regulations.
No annual servicing visits or call-out fees for a decade.
A single versatile P50 replaces multiple traditional extinguisher types.
Your building is assessed on its actual needs — not a generic template.
All installations meet UK fire safety regulations — no shortcuts.
Traditional setup vs Churchnet + P50
| Traditional setup | Churchnet + P50 | |
|---|---|---|
| Annual servicing | Required every year — cost and call-out | Not required for 10 years |
| Extinguisher types | Often multiple, with different maintenance needs | Single versatile unit |
| Lifetime cost | Accumulates year on year | Up to 80% lower |
| Compliance | Variable — often based on generic assessments | Fully UK compliant, properly assessed |
| Assessment type | Often generic, not church-specific | Church-specific — appropriate for the building |
| Clarity | Annual invoices often unexplained | Clear, one-off arrangement |
A note on compliance: All installations are properly assessed and fully compliant with UK fire safety regulations. Churchnet does not cut corners — the cost reduction comes from better products and a more appropriate setup for the building, not from reduced safety.
