We specialize in the installation, repair, and maintenance of fire sprinkler systems. These systems are designed to automatically detect a fire and extinguish it by releasing water or other fire-suppressing agents onto the flames. We work with general contractors or building owners to design, install, and maintain fire sprinkler systems in new construction projects and existing buildings. We also work with insurance companies and fire departments to ensure that the fire sprinkler systems meet all local and national codes and regulations. In addition to this, we also perform testing and inspections on fire sprinkler systems on a regular basis to ensure that they are functioning properly.
Fire sprinkler subcontractors typically perform inspections on fire sprinkler systems to ensure that they are functioning properly and in compliance with local and national codes and regulations. These inspections may include:
Visual inspections: These inspections involve visually inspecting the fire sprinkler system and its components, such as sprinkler heads, pipes, and valves, to look for any visible damage or defects.
Functionality tests: These tests involve activating the fire sprinkler system to ensure that it is working properly and can release the correct amount of water or other fire-suppressing agent onto a fire.
Flow tests: These tests involve measuring the flow of water or other fire-suppressing agent through the fire sprinkler system to ensure that it is sufficient to extinguish a fire.
Pressure tests: These tests involve measuring the pressure of the water or other fire-suppressing agent in the fire sprinkler system to ensure that it is within the proper range.
The frequency of fire sprinkler system inspections in Georgia is typically determined by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 25, Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems. According to this standard, fire sprinkler systems in Georgia must be inspected at least annually and more frequently if required by local ordinances or the authority having jurisdiction. In addition, certain components of the fire sprinkler system, such as sprinkler heads and valves, may need to be inspected more frequently depending on the specific type and use of the system.
It is important to note that the NFPA 25 standard is a minimum requirement, and some local jurisdictions in Georgia may have more stringent inspection requirements for fire sprinkler systems. It is the responsibility of the building owner or manager to ensure that the fire sprinkler system is inspected and maintained according to all applicable codes and regulations but we’re always here to help. So if you think you need an inspection, give us a call today or schedule a service online for us to get you on our schedule!
