Certified fire safety, tagging, and NFPA compliance inspections throughout New Mexico.
Under NFPA 72, smoke detector sensitivity must be tested within one year of installation and every alternate year thereafter. Detectors that drift out of their listed sensitivity range can cause dangerous false alarms or, conversely, fail to trigger during a real fire.
Dust, grease, and airborne particles accumulate inside smoke chambers, affecting sensor readings. Our diagnostic tools measure the precise percentage of obscuration per foot for each detector, ensuring they operate within designated manufacturer margins.
Since 1976, Fire Safety Industries has been the Southwest's premier fire protection partner. Our MS-14 licensed contractors and technicians handle every aspect of your fire code requirements:
A functional test introduces canned smoke to confirm the detector triggers. A sensitivity test measures the exact concentration of smoke required to trigger the alarm, verifying it is not too sensitive (causing false alarms) or unresponsive.
Avoid costly city fire marshal citations, protect your employees, and lower insurance rates with FSI tagging services.
Schedule an inspector to visit your commercial property or ask a compliance question.
