When Business is Not as Usual

Anyone who is in charge of a residential, business, or industrial property needs to take steps to minimize fire danger on a 24/7 basis. However, there are times when the usual fire protection measures do not apply. Along with its many other services, Fire Protection Group, Inc. is the place for fire watch California property owners and managers should turn to first.

The term “fire watch” refers to a series of measures that are required when sprinklers and other fire protection systems are not operational. This basically means that a team of employees skilled in fire protection will literally stand guard to ensure that there is no danger of fire. Fire watch may be required when repairs are being made or new construction is underway.

Fire watch has also traditionally been employed during film and television production. The lights used in making a movie or television show can sometimes be very hot – occasionally hot enough to set off fire alarm and fire protection systems, which means they need to be turned off. Obviously everyone involved, from the owner of the property to the film producers, cast, and crew, have an extremely vital interest in protecting against a fire. In those circumstances, a skilled fire watch crew like the ones provided by FPG, Inc. is an essential element of safely completing a production.

Anytime you have a situation that can impact the fire danger in a business or large residential facility, there are a host of details that must be attended to when there’s going to be a significant change in fire safety and prevention procedures. Everything from making sure that fire escapes are operation to fire extinguisher inspection must be attended to. Fortunately, Fire Protection Group, Inc. is here to make sure that fire safety is never compromised.
