Here’s a question for business owners: In your place of business, what is one of the most important safety features? Answer: It is your building’s fire protection system. Before a fire has a chance to spread throughout your building, it should be efficiently detected and extinguished by the system. If your system is not reliable and up to date, however, that’s going to be a problem.

How do you know if it’s time for fire protection system replacement?

We’re going to introduce you to the three most commonly experienced signs that could help you recognize when it’s time to replace fire protection equipment.Check with a fire inspection company if you are still unsure of whether or not replacement/repair is necessary.

Your Fire Protection System Requires a Lot of Maintenance

A professional should be consulted to inspect and repair damages to fire protection systems.if this happens too frequently, it may be time to simply replace the whole system.

The Size of Your Company Changes

The amount of people occupying your place of business has everything to do with the building’s installed fire protection equipment. So if you’re downsizing or growing your company, you’ll want to make sure that enough fire alarms, fire sprinklers, fire extinguishers, etc. are in place for the building and the number of people in it. As a business, you’ll need to abide by certain fire codes as well, which will be affected by the number of people in your building.

You have an Old Fire Protection System

Each year, the system your building uses for fire protection becomes a little more outdated and a little older. Compare it to the most modern systems on the market, and you’ll probably find that yours is lacking in some advanced technology and new features.

What’s more, the reason for a system upgrade can involve pinpoint leaks and corrosion which appear over time. These can cause clogged pipes, leaking pipes, and more. A fire may spread faster and cause more damage if the old sprinkler systems do not detect and extinguish it in time.
