Let’s face it, fires are costly, not to mention if your fire system is down, there are specific guidelines that have to be followed.
If one fails to comply they are subject to costly fines, which can be significant.
For instance, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has a set of guidelines to protect from property and lives from the presence of a fire hazard. NFPA 101 section 9 states, if an automatic sprinkler or fire alarm system is down for over 4 hours in a 24 hour period, the building is required to have a fire watch service or must be evacuated.
