Commercial Fire Protection & Prevention in Fremont
In addition to the residential services we offer, we also provide quality commercial fire protection and prevention services as well. It is very important to understand the many differences that are involved with dealing with businesses. Since businesses often share buildings, local zoning laws and regulations may require strict, uniform adherence. This is due to the fact that unlike homes which are usually separated by ample space, your office may be attached to others on the side, on top or bottom, or possibly in the front or rear. If a fire were to break out in any one of these units it could have devastating effects on all of them. We help protect against:- Loss of income or livelihood
- Employee injury
- Potential lawsuits
- Destruction of neighboring businesses
- Commercial Evaluations
- Fire Sprinkler Design
- Testing and Maintenance
- And Many More!
Important Information About Fire Safety in the Workplace
So, you’ve done all you can to prevent fires in your commercial property by conducting proper fire inspections, installing sprinklers, and much more. Are all these enough? Definitely not. You need to train your employees too. Remind your employees about the basic fire safety tips they should know, including not smoking indoors, turning off electronics that are not being used, keeping flammable items from heat or open flame, and more. According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, employers must also train their employees about fire hazards in the workplace and what they have to do in an emergency involving fire. When necessary, your workers must know when, how, and where to evacuate in case of a fire emergency. You must have enough exits to make evacuation easier and quicker. If you require your employees to use fire fighting equipment such as fire distinguishers, they must be taught how to use this equipment. Your workers have the right to have working conditions that do not risk or expose them to serious harm, such as potential fire emergencies.

How often does a commercial building need a fire sprinkler inspection?+
Under NFPA 25, most commercial sprinkler systems need monthly or quarterly checks of gauges and control valves, plus a full annual inspection by a qualified contractor. Local fire departments and insurance carriers often require documentation of these inspections on file.
What happens if my business fails a fire inspection?+
The fire department or inspector will issue a citation or notice listing the specific violations found, along with a deadline to correct them. Common issues include obstructed sprinkler heads, expired extinguisher tags, and blocked fire department connections. A fire protection contractor can make the corrections and provide documentation to close out the citation.
Can commercial fire protection lower my insurance costs?+
Many commercial insurance carriers offer reduced premiums for buildings with properly maintained and documented fire sprinkler and suppression systems, since a working system significantly reduces potential loss. Ask your insurance provider what documentation they require to qualify.
