Inspections on the schedule your fire marshal expects

California adopts NFPA 25 for the inspection, testing and maintenance of water-based fire protection systems, and CCR Title 19 requires the five-year service to be done and documented by a licensed company. We track the schedule for every system we service so the next visit is booked before it is due.

• Quarterly inspections: gauges, valves, alarm devices, the fire department connection and signage.
• Annual inspections: a full walk of the system, main drain and flow tests, and the report your building needs on file.
• Five-year certifications for commercial buildings, apartments, condominiums and residential systems, with State Fire Marshal documentation.
• Fire pump testing: monthly, semi-annual, annual and five-year pump runs.

Repairs and deficiencies

When an inspection turns something up, a corroded head, a leaking valve, an obstructed branch line, we quote the repair in writing and schedule it with the same crew that found it. That keeps your deficiency list short and your paperwork in one place.

Installations and tenant improvements

From ground-up systems to relocating heads for a new tenant layout, we handle commercial tenant improvement work on existing sprinkler systems. We also supply custom addressed PIV signs.

Where we work

Our sprinkler technicians work every day in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Indio, Cathedral City, La Quinta, Rancho Mirage, Desert Hot Springs and Coachella, and across the rest of the valley and the High Desert.

Other services at the same visit

Most buildings with sprinklers also need fire extinguisher service, fire alarm inspection or kitchen hood suppression. One company, one schedule, one set of reports.

Common questions

How often does a fire sprinkler system need inspecting?

Some components are checked quarterly, the whole system annually, and a five-year internal inspection and certification is required on top of that. Your local fire authority can set additional requirements, and we follow whichever is stricter.

Do you handle the paperwork?

Yes. You get a written report after every inspection, and five-year certifications come with the documentation the fire marshal asks for.

Can you work around business hours?

Yes. Tell us when the building is least busy and we schedule around it.
