Replacing Commercial Fire Alarms  

If you own a business, it's important to make sure the building, your staff, and any customers are as safe a s possible. One of the ways you can do this is to make sure your commercial fire alarms are always working and up to date . Commercial fire alarms are a safety necessity in buildings to signal that there is a fire to warn everyone and allow everyone to get out of the building safely. Commercial fire alarms require regular maintenance to make sure they are up to date and abiding by local regulations.

You may be wondering what reasons you might need to replace your commercial fire alarm. Your alarm may not meet local code regulations, have broken pieces, be out of date, or you might just be looking to upgrade to a voice-controlled fire alarm system. If you are not sure if your commercial fire alarm needs to be replaced or what is broken on it, consult a professional.  

To make sure your commercial fire alarm is working correctly, they should undergo a yearly maintenance schedule. Every year your alarm should go through control panel testing, device testing, alarm communication testing, and battery testing. Aside from those checks, all smoke alarms should be checked every six months as well. Fire drills should be run twice a year to mimic real life events, to ensure that all systems are performing correctly. A good rule of thumb to remember is to conduct fire drills and check the smoke detectors once in the Spring and one in the Fall.
