Frequently Asked Questions

  • What types of fire protection systems do you install and maintain?

    We specialize in a range of fire protection systems including wet sprinkler systems, dry pipe systems, fire standpipes, and fire pumps. Our team is experienced in both residential and commercial installations, ensuring compliance with Massachusetts fire codes. Beyond installation, we provide full maintenance, testing, and inspection services to ensure ongoing protection and insurance compliance. We tailor our solutions based on building use, occupancy, and budget, offering scalable protection that evolves with your property.

  • How often do fire protection systems need to be inspected?

    Fire protection systems must be inspected at regular intervals to remain compliant and functional. NFPA guidelines generally require monthly visual inspections and annual functional testing. However, specific components, like fire pumps and alarms, may need quarterly or semi-annual attention. We offer scheduled inspection plans to ensure you're always compliant with local Billerica regulations and insurance requirements—without you having to remember the dates.

  • What’s the difference between wet and dry sprinkler systems?

    Wet systems are filled with water and are ideal for heated spaces where freezing isn’t a concern. Dry systems, on the other hand, are filled with pressurized air and only release water when a fire is detected—perfect for unheated areas like garages or warehouses. We evaluate your property's layout and environment to recommend and install the most appropriate system for optimal safety and longevity.

  • Can you retrofit an existing building with a fire protection system?

    Yes, we specialize in retrofitting older or unprotected buildings with modern fire suppression systems. This process often involves re-piping, adding alarms, and ensuring code compliance. Our team coordinates closely with building management to minimize disruptions and adhere to all local permitting and inspection requirements during installation.

  • Do you offer emergency fire protection repairs?

    Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency repair services to handle sudden leaks, malfunctions, or fire system failures. If your sprinkler system activates, or if you’re experiencing low pressure, strange alarms, or broken components, our team is ready for immediate dispatch across Billerica and surrounding areas to restore your protection promptly.

  • What is backflow prevention and is it required for fire systems?

    Backflow prevention stops contaminated water from flowing into the clean water supply. It's essential in fire protection systems to prevent stagnated sprinkler water from re-entering your drinking water lines. Massachusetts law mandates backflow prevention in all commercial fire systems. We include backflow device installation and annual testing in our service offerings.

  • Can you handle multi-building or large commercial fire protection systems?

    Yes. We’ve designed and installed large-scale fire protection systems for schools, office parks, manufacturing plants, and apartment complexes. From multi-zone sprinkler layouts to alarm integrations and remote monitoring, we have the resources and expertise to manage complex installations with precision.

  • What happens after the system is installed? Do you offer ongoing support?

    Yes, our commitment doesn’t stop at installation. We provide ongoing support through inspection contracts, routine maintenance, code updates, and emergency response services. You’ll receive documentation for insurance purposes and reminders for upcoming inspections to stay compliant and protected year-round.

  • Are permits required for fire system installation or modification?

    Yes, in Massachusetts, fire protection system installations and modifications require permits. We handle the entire permitting process for you, including coordinating with local fire marshals and municipal inspectors to ensure smooth approvals. This saves you time and ensures no step is overlooked.

  • Can fire protection systems be customized for residential properties?

    Definitely. While fire protection is more common in commercial buildings, high-end or multi-family residential properties can benefit greatly from sprinkler systems. We offer aesthetically mindful designs and low-profile sprinklers that integrate into residential ceilings and walls while meeting code requirements and improving safety.
