Testing and Maintaining Your Business Fire Alarm System

Because so many businesses are damaged or destroyed by fire, installing a business fire alarm system is one of the best investments you can make. A monitored fire alarm system can let you and your monitoring company know as soon as a fire emergency threatens in your business. And now, with smart technology, you can be notified on your phone, tablet or computer when an alert occurs.

But purchasing and installing a fire alarm system is just the beginning. Your system, once installed, must be periodically examined and tested in order to ensure it will work as expected and perform in the event of a fire situation. If you purchase a system and ignore it from them on, you will not have the protection that you think you have because even high quality systems need to be tested and maintained.

For example, something as simple as batteries in a smoke detector can be the cause of a fire disaster if they are not replaced regularly.

Fluctuations in voltage as well as temperature extremes and humid conditions can cause a system to malfunction. 

Only a trained professional can give your system the inspection that it needs in order to ensure your continued protection. Keep in mind, if an emergency does occur, your insurance company may want to see proof of regular maintenance and inspections. This is another reason to get your system inspected regularly.

Having your fire alarm system regularly checked is a budgetary issue. Hiring a professional to oversee your system does cost money, and it may be money that is not easy to spend. After all, no one really expects to be the unfortunate victim of a fire emergency. But neglecting this important aspect may cost you far more than the price of a professional inspection.
