Inspect your system on your own from time to time
When you’re walking around inside your commercial building, you should inspect the parts of your fire alarm system that you can see and take note of any potential problems. For example, if you see a fire sprinkler that’s leaking or a fire extinguisher that isn’t fully charged, you should seek to change that right away. You should try to conduct visual inspections on your system once every few weeks, if at all possible.
Hire a company to test your system on a regular basis
In addition to inspecting your commercial fire alarm system, you should also have it tested regularly to make sure that all the different components inside of it work. To do this, you’ll need to bring a certified fire protection technician on board to get the job done. They’ll put your system to the test and see how it performs under emergency conditions.
