Be Proactive with Your Business’ Fire Suppression

By
When it comes to fire suppression for your business, it is essential to be proactive. Is your commercial fire suppression system still up to code? If you have an old, outdated or bare bones fire suppression system in your office building you aren’t doing everything you can to ensure safety for those who work there every day.

Be proactive! Passive fire protection isn’t enough to keep everyone safe. When it comes down to it, your best line of defense is having a current, tested and monitored system that works. At Hard Fire, we specialize in commercial fire suppression for Columbus and know just how important it is to have the right system that works.

We will go directly to you to custom design a comprehensive commercial fire suppression system for your unique business. Then we will build it and monitor it thereafter. We are constantly on top of the latest technology in fire suppression so we hate to see situations where companies don’t stay up-to-date on the latest and the greatest. Why not bring old buildings up to current technology.

Fast, sufficient suppression is just as important as proper detection. The faster the fire is spotted, the sooner your notification system can alert the proper emergency personnel to come and put out the blaze.

The best thing you can do for your commercial fire suppression system is to have it inspected at least once a year. Contact Hard Fire and we can catch any problems that might impact your system’s abilities. We will also recommend that you take a look at it on a monthly basis and that you take basic precautions like never painting over the sprinklers, never obstructing them and never hanging items from them.

It is also important to make sure you hire the professionals to ensure the job is done well. At Hard Fire, we have professional representatives on NFPA standard’s code committees and work closely with fire detection and suppression system manufacturers.

In conclusion, it is essential to make sure all of your commercial fire suppression systems are properly installed and monitored. These systems can help save lives and minimize the amount of damage done.
