What is a specified system?

The systems your building can't run without

Specified system

Specified systems are the safety and service systems a building is required to have, and to keep working: by its approved plans, the building regulations and your insurer. They need regular servicing, and many need a certificate of compliance or an inspection to stay legal.

*Lifts and escalators are coordinated with your appointed lift contractor.
