Just A Few Services Your Business Should Be Receiving From Your Fire Protection Company
Regardless of the type of business you operate, having the proper fire protection services is important to the safety and well-being of the company. The right protection will save your products, machinery, documents, and most importantly, it can save the lives of your employees and customers. Before you open your doors for business, contact a company experienced in commercial fire protection services. Work with them to design a system best suited to your establishment. Here are just a few of the services that should be included once the system has been designed.
Installation
It is important the company that designed the system installs it. This could be the sprinkler system in the ceilings, a complete hood and fire suppression system for a commercial kitchen, or simply the placement and types of fire extinguishers. While a different contractor may be capable of doing the installation, the designer will see and fix any problems that may come up during the process.
Upgrades
New and better technology is a fact of life in almost everything. Make sure the company you choose will contact you with the option to have any upgrades to your system as soon as they become available. They need to be savvy enough to be able to explain any benefits the upgrades will provide as well as fit the upgrades into your existing system.
Testing
Every fire protection system needs to be tested from time to time. The service company should contact you to set appointments to perform these tests. Any problems should be noted and repaired immediately. You may be able to purchase a service and maintenance contract to have the testing and simple repairs done without any additional costs.
Monitoring
One of the important aspects of any fire protection service is monitoring. Any time your system goes off, be it sprinklers, fire alarms, or a suppression system, an alarm should be sent to the monitoring company and/or the local fire department. You will be contacted anytime the alarm is triggered. This service is essential should a fire break out when your business is closed.
A fire can occur for a number of reasons. Once it does, the reason really is not the important issue. You need to protect your business and the people inside the establishment regardless of the reason. Contact a commercial fire protection services company to ensure you are doing all you can to provide that protection.
