Commercial Fire Alarm Inspection Recommendations from NFPA

fire alarm inspection

Commercial properties are required to have regular inspections conducted on their fire alarm systems and components to ensure safety systems are operating as intended.  If your fire and safety alert system experiences a malfunction or is not ready in case of emergency, it is basically useless and could provide no early warning whatsoever.  For this reason, The National Fire Protection Association, NFPA, recommends that commercial properties have their fire detection systems tested at least twice per year, with testing of all functional components once annually.  

Fire Alarm Inspections Provide Valuable Service

 

Fire alarm inspections save property owners money in the long run as insurance companies must see evidence of sufficient fire and safety systems when underwriting a policy.  Some insurance companies offer discounts for safety systems that are proven to be maintained and fully operational.

 

The local Authority having Jurisdiction (AHJ) which could be the local Fire Marshall, also requires inspections recommended by the NFPA for building permit approvals.  It can be quite costly to reinstate permits that have been revoked or denied.

 

Working with an experienced and licensed fire safety consulting firm will reap big rewards for building and property owners.
