If you have a commercial building in the Portland, Oregon or Vancouver, WA area, you need fire alarms. These can’t just be a few sprinklers thrown up in the ceiling. Commercial buildings must adhere to fire regulations enforced by law.

Commercial fire regulations exist to maintain the safety and well-being of building tenants in case of a fire emergency.

Some of the rules include:

  •  A fire sprinkler must be located every 150 square feet of building space throughout the commercial building.
  • Fire alarms must be located throughout the building and clearly marked with red paint.
  • All fire alarms must be clearly visible and accessible.
  • When a fire alarm is pulled the alarm must create an audible signal.
  • Fully functional smoke detectors must be located in each room

Understanding the regulations and how to safely install a fire system takes a well-trained electrician. Amp Electric is highly trained and experience in Commercial  Fire Alarm Systems.

We also work with:

  • New construction

Amp Electric recently came to my home to assist in my remodel of the kitchen. The work they did with all of my lighting was phenomenal. I look forward to hiring them again when I redo the entertainment room!
