Inspection and Maintenance of Fire Sprinkler Systems
Every year fires cost businesses more than $10 billion in damages, injured more than 17,000 people and kill more than 3,000 people. HAVE YOU PREPARED TO PROTECT YOUR PEOPLE, PROPERTY, AND PRODUCTIVITY FROM FIRE DAMAGE?
Fire Sprinkler Systems are the most effective method of controlling the spread of fire. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), Fire Sprinkler Systems succeed 98% of the time in controlling fires when those systems have been maintained in proper working condition.
The State of California Fire Marshal requires a 5 year test be performed on all operational Fire Sprinkler Systems by a qualified C-16 licensed Fire Sprinkler Contractor. The objective of the 5 year certification is to test and record the performance of the Fire Sprinkler System components and identify any deficiencies to ensure proper operation in case of fire.
Bob Peters Fire Protection has been servicing the Fire Protection and Life Safety needs of commercial and residential properties for over 35 years. Our inspection service include monthly, quarterly, annual, and 5 year inspections for Title 19 certification.
