When your fire-suppression or alarm system goes offline, most jurisdictions require a fire watch until it's restored. AM PM Nationwide Security deploys compliant fire-watch officers same-day, keeping you covered and documented for your fire marshal.
California Fire Code Section 901.7 governs the required fire watch when fire-protection systems are out of service. Our officers follow its rounding and notification standards, conducting documented rounds and maintaining communication with the fire department.
