Fire Alarms & Life Safety

---

An Automatic Fire Alarm System provides a quick detection of a fire, which is needed for proper fire protection. 

Call us for advice.  We install, inspect, and maintain all types of Automatic Fire Alarm Systems.

Fire alarm monitoring requirements can vary from state to state. This is a question best answered by either a professional fire-protection company, your local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), and/or the 2020 edition of the NFPA 101 Life Safety Code®. 

You can also find many of the fire codes and monitoring requirements on the NFPA website.

There are many variations on what is required, where, and when, based on many factors, including the age of your buildings and their NFPA occupancy classifications. 

Being a commercial fire protection company, SRFE feels every occupied building would benefit greatly from monitored fire protection services, regardless of whether it is “required” or not. 

Be sure to check your NFPA 101 Occupancy Classification to determine whether 24/7 business fire alarm monitoring is required for you business or property. 

If your business falls into any of these Commercial NFPA 101 occupancy classification categories, some form of fire alarm monitoring will most likely be required. The features of your commercial alarm monitoring services and system will be based on your classification and the rules of your AHJ.
