Recognition
Your engineering protects lives. Fire safety performance solutions and egress designs are tested in emergencies you hope never happen. Professional Indemnity insurance protects you when your engineering is scrutinised.
Life Safety Liability
Fire engineering is fundamentally about life safety. Your calculations determine evacuation times, fire resistance requirements, and smoke management. When lives are at stake, the professional liability is among the highest of any engineering discipline.
Performance Solutions
Alternative solutions under the NCC/BCA create specific exposures. You're certifying that your engineered solution achieves outcomes equivalent to deemed-to-satisfy provisions. If that solution fails or is rejected by authorities, significant claims can follow.
WHY TANK INSURANCE
What to look for in PI cover
Fire safety engineering carries exposures that demand specialist understanding. We work with insurers experienced in engineering professional liability and understand the unique risks fire engineers face.
01
Life-Safety Understanding
We work with insurers who understand the critical nature of fire engineering, the life-safety implications and the scrutiny that follows any fire incident.
02
Performance Solution Cover
Alternative solutions and performance-based designs create specific exposures. We work to confirm your policy covers claims arising from BCA alternative solutions and engineered fire safety.
03
Adequate Limits
Fire engineering claims can be substantial - rectification of fire safety deficiencies, investigation costs, and potential injury claims. We help you select limits that reflect actual exposures.
04
Regulatory Defence
Fire engineering often involves engagement with fire authorities and certifiers. We work to confirm your policy covers defence costs for regulatory challenges and investigations.
PROFESSIONAL RISKS
Risks Fire Engineers Face
These fire safety engineering decisions carry professional liability that can crystallise when fires occur, or when fire authorities challenge your solutions.
