Commercial Business Fire Prevention

8/7/2020 (Permalink)

A great idea for any commercial business is to request an inspection from your local fire department. Why? These inspections help to point out safety violations and eliminate potential fire hazards. Madison Fire and Rescue will inspect buildings including: schools, daycare centers, businesses, restaurants and hotels.

There are a handful of common violations usually found during an inspection. These include: exit and emergency lights inoperable, blocked paths of egress, fire alarm systems not serviced and tested annually, automatic sprinkler systems not serviced and tested annually.

Requesting an inspection is easy. Visit https://www.madisonal.gov/473/Inspections for more information.

Sometimes, even with the best prevention measures, fires still happen. If your business experiences fire damage, SERVPRO® of South Madison County is here to help. Call us anytime at 256-533-5335.
