Frequently asked questions about Elevator Recall Test
How often must firefighter's service be tested?
ASME A17.1 requires the Phase I/Phase II key-switch test monthly, which can be performed by the building owner or a designated agent — no elevator license is required. Automatic Phase I recall from each interfaced fire alarm initiating device must be tested at least annually by qualified elevator personnel. Some jurisdictions modify the monthly interval to quarterly, so check your local AHJ.
Who can perform the monthly test?
The monthly key-switch test can be performed by the building's own trained staff or designated agent. The annual fire-alarm-interface test, which verifies each initiating device actually triggers recall, should be performed by qualified elevator personnel, often coordinated with the fire alarm contractor.
