Why a fire watch service is critical for your business.

According to the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association), if a fire/smoke alarm system is down for more than 4 hours in any 24 hour period, a FIRE WATCH SERVICE is necessary. Maxxguard offers this service.

A fire watch is defined as continual monitoring of all areas of any structure affected by the alarm downtime, maintaining an alert status for smoke, fire, or other situations.

This monitoring helps protect property from fire as well as the safety of those on and near the property.

Hiring a professional fire watch service during the times your fire/smoke alarms are down due to maintenance, unforeseen failures, electrical or natural disaster issues, is critical.

Also, many insurance companies not only require such emergency supervision but also provide discounts to companies that include our patrol services as part of their business model.

Since the failure of a fire/smoke alarm system is unpredictable, it is imperative that you already have a plan in place ahead of time. The first step in that plan is to call Maxxguard at (731) 427-7222 and speak with one of our experts.
