We make sure your fire alarms are in good working order by looking at a few different things:

·         Are the alarm sensors properly calibrated? We will test them when we come to your business for maintenance checks.

·         Are the annunciators working? We will check those and will also simulate inputs.

·         We will set the fire alarms’ sensitivity. This requires in-depth knowledge of your fire alarm system and staying up-to-date on current fire detection theory.

·         The fire alarms’ batteries will be check for corrosion and to make sure they did not expire. We also make sure they contain the proper load.

·         All parts of the fire alarm system will be visually inspected to make sure nothing is damaged.
