Fire/Life Safety

Our Fire/Life Safety team works closely with each client to define goals and meet criteria for protection of buildings and their occupants. Assisting with critical issues such as alarm and sprinkler system design, life-safety code compliance, flow testing, clean agent suppression and foam system design, we create the ideal system for each building.

  • ­Design of fire detection, alarm and suppression systems
  • Review of contractor design and materials selection
  • Plan check and code review for local authorities
  • System programming and commissioning
  • Confidence testing
  • Special suppression systems (foam, dry agent, etc.)
