Commercial Fire Preparedness

2/26/2018 (Permalink)

A fire can break at in your commercial building at any time. Are you prepared as possible?

Commercial business owners everywhere know they must keep their fire protection systems up to code, but what happens when they don't?

A fire can break out at any time.  Whether it is faulty equipment or a careless employee, you must be prepared.  Maintaining your fire suppression system, as well as planning ahead, can save your business from extended closure and lost revenue following a fire.

There are many cases every year in which a lack of properly installed fire safety equipment leads to extensive damage from fires.  If your business isn't up to code on all of your sprinklers, suppression systems and alarms, your business could face disastrous consequences.

You also should address the issue that businesses don't always prepare for - employee fire safety training.  An employee who has been trained can avoid the fire hazard, and possibly even fight the fire, using an extinguisher properly. 

Next, it is best to prepare for the aftermath of a fire.  Call your SERVPRO representative and have them perform a FREE Emergency Ready Profile (ERP) and you be well prepared for a fire incident.  This ERP profile will expedite the cleanup and restoration services provided by SERVPRO.
