Along with having adequate property insurance, purchasing, properly installing, routinely testing, and maintaining a commercial fire alarm is one of the wisest and most cost effective loss prevention steps a business owner can take. Fire alarms work by giving an early warning that fire has been detected. This early warning helps to increase the odds of quickly extinguishing the blaze, and reducing overall property damage. There is no question that properly functioning fire alarms help save property and lives.
A properly maintained, and tested, commercial fire system has many benefits. By making sure the fire alarm system is working correctly, it helps to ensure that your customers and employees can safely evacuate the building in the event of a fire, and, in many cases, it can help to reduce the cost of your insurance premiums. Many insurance carriers offer a discount for fire alarm systems.
One of the best ways to make certain your alarm system is in good working order is to contract with a alarm servicing company to test the system. Regular, preferably weekly, testing of the system should be included in the contract you sign with the company you choose. A professional fire alarm servicing company will include weekly testing of several different areas of the system to make certain the entire system is being properly maintained. Many different factors can cause a fire detection system to fail at a critical moment, such as loose cables, blocked sensors, or a faulty electrical supply to the system. Weekly inspections and testing can help identify these, and other, potential hazards early enough to correct the problem before it becomes too late.
Make sure that the alarm company you chose meets the requirements set forth by your insurance carrier, in order to be fully covered against any potential loss due to a fire. The alarm company should also have the ability to monitor the system for such occurrences as “false alarms”, have a rapid reply time, and be available to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.
Installing an adequate alarm system is one area where a business owner does not want to skimp on expense. The old adage really is true: “You get what you pay for.” The extra money spent up front will more than pay for itself in the future, by providing safety and protection for your business, your workers and your customers.

Why would a fire alarm have more than one direction to operate it?
I saw a fire alarm at a hotel and it had you lift open the cover break the glass and pull the handle down? How long would it take to do all these directions in a fire? How would one remember all of those steps to activate the alarm? Does one need to say the directions out loud to help to do it quickly?
Why are you soo obsessed with pull stations – this is probably your 100th question about how to work them! Why dont you go on ebay and buy some to find out for yourself!
