In accordance with the BC Fire Code, all fire protection systems in Surrey must undergo a full annual inspection. Some systems, like fire pumps, require monthly checks.

Only Qualified Persons are permitted. Surrey municipal regulations require technicians to be registered with the ASTTBC (Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC).

A Knox Box is a secure fire department lockbox. The Surrey Fire Service requires these on most commercial buildings to allow immediate entry during an alarm without damaging doors.

Yes. We provide NFPA 10 compliant inspections, tagging, and hydro-testing for fire extinguishers in warehouses, retail spaces, and strata buildings.

Most insurance providers require an annual fire inspection report to maintain coverage. Staying compliant helps prevent claim denials and may qualify you for better rates.
