How often does a sprinkler system need to be inspected in NYC?
Sprinkler components have different intervals under NFPA 25 and the NYC Fire Code, from regular gauge and valve checks to annual inspections and tests, with some items on five-year cycles. We build a schedule for your building and handle each visit as it comes due.
Can you help with a sprinkler violation?
Yes. We correct the condition and work through the DOB and FDNY process to clear the violation from your record.
What should I do if a sprinkler head is leaking?
If there's a fire, call 911. If a sprinkler is leaking or has activated without a fire, call us right away at (212) 334-6661. We offer 24/7 emergency service.
