For the safety and optimal performance of your fire alarm system, it is required by code to have fire alarm inspections conducted annually. This frequency ensures that all components, from smoke detectors to signaling devices, function correctly. Additionally, some local regulations and national fire protection standards may require more frequent inspections, such as semi-annually or quarterly, especially for commercial or high-risk establishments. It’s essential to consult with a local fire department or a professional fire alarm inspection service to understand the specific requirements for your building or facility.
