Expert Fire Alarm System Maintenance in Dallas & Allen

How Often We Maintain Your ASD Fire Alarm System in Frisco

At American Security Devices, our fire alarm maintenance frequency depends on several key factors to ensure optimal performance and safety:

• Manufacturer Recommendations: Follow the maintenance schedule of the fire alarm manufacturer, which typically includes monthly tests and annual inspections.
• Usage and Environment: In high-traffic or dusty environments, more frequent maintenance may be required. For instance, businesses with heavy machinery or kitchens should inspect and clean their systems more often.
• Local Regulations: Adhere to local fire safety laws and codes, which often mandate regular maintenance checks and professional inspections. In DFW, specific guidelines may apply, so staying informed about local requirements is crucial.
• System Age: Older fire alarm systems might need more frequent inspections and maintenance to ensure they are functioning correctly.
• Building Type: Residential, commercial, and industrial buildings may have different maintenance needs based on their size and usage.
