Fire Alarm Requirements Naperville, IL, is a thriving, vibrant community located 28 miles west of Chicago, and consistently ranks as a top community in the U.S. to live, raise a family and retire. Known for having world-class parks, one of the best public library systems in the U.S., and a low-crime rate, Naperville is attractive for residential and business growth. With a diverse employer base and many industrial factories, retailers, and technology firms, Naperville is a Chicago suburb that has continued to thrive and blossom over the decades.

With residential and business growth comes the need for maintaining safety and commercial fire alarm and life safety systems bring the needed security to facilities of all sizes in the city of Naperville.
