Some facts you should know before choosing a
service company
What kind of people should I expect to come?
Stringent codes adopted by municipalities
and Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) based on standards developed by
independent agencies such as the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) are
compelling the North American fire alarm service providers to train, update, and
retain skilled personnel. The companies are forced to invest heavily in
imparting cross-functional expertise including basic skills in electronics and
computer programming to ensure superior service levels. Such intensive training
has become essential in the wake of continuous technological advancements and
the integration of fire alarm systems with other building safety systems.
However, in order to offer consistent service, companies must retain these
select and highly specialized service personnel who are constantly being trained
to better serve you.
Do I need an annual fire safety inspection?
For existing commercial buildings, the fire prevention company you choose
should provide an annual inspection program that is delivered with both
fire prevention and fire codes in mind. Annual inspections are conducted
to insure reasonable compliance with the general and specific fire safety
regulations for each occupancy type as specified in the NFPA Fire and Building
Codes.
What else do I need to know?
Your fire alarm
company should have 24 hour monitoring along with 24 hour service. Personnel of
your fire alarm company should be NICET certified and knowledgeable in all
aspects of the field. All fire alarm companies in the state of New Jersey are
required to have a state permit and have it posted on the side of the service
vehicle.
