Running a business comes with many responsibilities, and ensuring the safety of your premises is paramount. Among the various safety measures, maintaining your fire safety systems is crucial. If you’ve recently received a notice from the Fire Department, you might wonder what it means and what steps you need to take. Let’s break it down.
Understanding Fire Department Notices
When the Fire Department sends you a notice, it’s a reminder that it’s time to service your fire safety systems. These systems require regular maintenance to ensure they function correctly and comply with safety regulations. Here’s what you need to know:
