Step by step

What a Fire Watch Shift Covers

When your fire system is down, fire watch fills the gap. This is what trained personnel do on site during each shift.

  1. Patrol the site

    Fire watch patrols run 24/7, with thorough inspections of the site on every round.

  2. Find hazards early

    Personnel look for fire hazards and deal with them before they escalate.

  3. Raise the alarm fast

    If a fire-related incident happens, emergency services are notified right away, with direct communication with the fire department.

  4. Keep the property compliant

    Fire watch supports compliance with local fire codes and the safety standards fire departments require.

  5. Log every round

    Detailed logs of every patrol and incident give you the documentation the property needs.

Abbotsford Fire Watch Questions, Answered

Fire watch keeps a property safe from fire hazards when fire alarm systems, sprinklers or other safety equipment are malfunctioning or under maintenance. In some situations it is required by law to stay in line with fire codes.
