Fire Suppression System Inspection & Testing Services
Once your fire suppression system is installed, it’s important to keep it in proper operating condition so that it can protect your building in the event of an emergency. Although the system may be “out of sight, out of mind” for busy building managers, it’s vital to have your system inspected and tested often. Without this vital step, you won’t know if there’s anything wrong with your suppression system until an unexpected blaze breaks out. A malfunction could leave your business’s assets and equipment unprotected.
IMPORTANCE OF REGULAR INSPECTIONS
Regular inspections and testing are required by code to ensure your building is safe in case of fire. During an inspection, you can expect the following tasks to be completed by a qualified technician:
- Test and clean all smoke detectors and fire alarms
- Verify shutdown circuits and evacuation alerts
- Ensure proper cylinder pressures and weights
- Check for changes in hazardous material being stored on site and ensure the fire suppression system is equipped to manage it
- Simulate system discharge and test the releasing circuits
- Conduct a visual inspection of pipes and nozzles
- Perform any other tests required for your specific system
The purpose of inspecting and testing your fire suppression system is to pinpoint any malfunctions so they can be corrected. Many repairs are made on the spot, but for more extensive work, a technician may return for a follow-up visit.

Foam Fire Suppression Systems
If your business or organization has operations involving the processing or handling of flammable liquids, a traditional water-based fire sprinkler system may not be enough to protect your space from fires. Not only are these spaces typically much larger (and therefore harder to protect), but fires may involve fuels or other flammable liquids that won’t go out when doused with water (and in many cases, the fire can get worse).
BENEFITS OF FOAM FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS
Since fires from many flammable liquids cannot be controlled with a traditional sprinkler system, foam systems suppress fire by separating the fuel from the air (oxygen). The main fire-fighting agent, Aqueous Film-Forming Foams (AFFF), is based on a combination of fluoro-chemical surfactants, hydrocarbon surfactants, and solvents. The benefit of these types of agents is that they require very low energy input to produce a high-quality fire-fighting foam. As a result, they can be delivered through a wide variety of systems.
This versatility makes foam fire suppression systems the obvious choice for businesses and buildings with special hazard fire protection risks such as:
- Aircraft hangars
- Airports
- Jet engine test facilities
- Manufacturing plants
- Marine facilities
- Municipal fire departments
- Refineries
- Storage facilities
FOAM FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM BLADDER TANKS
Foam concentrate is often stored in a bladder tank system. In AFFF systems, a bladder tank containing a nylon reinforced elastomeric bladder is used to store the foam concentrate. System water pressure is used to squeeze the bladder, providing fire-fighting foam concentrate—at the same pressure—to the foam proportioner. With bladder tank foam systems, no external power is required, and little maintenance is needed.
If you operate a facility that handles large quantities of flammable liquids, a foam fire suppression system will go a long way toward keeping you safe from a devastating fire. we can install, replace, repair, and test your foam fire bladder tank and suppression system.
