FIRE SAFETY CONSULTATION
During the consultation, a fire safety expert (level 6) answers your questions about the fire safety of your building, construction project or event – for example about the use permit, fire safety audit, heating system, smoke control or installing solar panels. Suitable for home and apartment owners, developers, designers, builders and companies. The consultation lasts 30 minutes or 1 hour. Price €160/h + VAT. Choose below how you would like to meet: video call or phone anywhere in Estonia, a meeting in Tallinn on Thursdays, or an on-site inspection elsewhere in Estonia based on a quote.
Frequently asked questions
When is a heating system expertise needed?
When a stove, cooker, fireplace or chimney has no design and no stove-builder’s report on covered works with as-built drawings. This is often the case with heating appliances inherited from a previous owner or built long ago.
What does the expertise cover?
We assess the fire safety of heating appliances, flue connections and chimneys against the requirements of EVS 812-3 (including the versions valid at the time of construction). The result is a written assessment with remarks.
Is a heating system expertise needed for a use permit?
Yes, if the heating appliances have no manufacturer’s passport, certificate or installer’s report. A fire safety audit does not assess heating appliances, so a separate expertise is needed in that case.
How long does the expertise take?
The site visit takes 2–4 hours, depending on the number of heating appliances and chimneys. The preliminary result is ready within 15–30 working days unless agreed otherwise.
How can the process be sped up?
Send us floor plans marking the locations of the heating appliances and a valid chimney sweeping report in advance. On site, there must be access to all heating appliances, including in outbuildings, and to the chimneys on the roof.
