As we know, a fire can be one of the most overwhelming and devastating
things that can happen to a business or home. Fire alarms and alarm monitoring
systems can help to safeguard the lives of your family, employees, and
customers.
Many business owners worked their whole lives to build a prosperous
company. Valuable company assets, files, and equipment can be quickly destroyed
in a fire. Often companies never recover from these awful events because too
many assets have been ruined and there may be too much downtime after a fire.
Every second counts in the event of a fire. Sadly, a fire
can double in size and intensity every 30 seconds, so how fast occupants and
the fire department are warned can make the difference between life and death
as well as how much property is lost and therefore how much interruption a
company may have following a fire. Early detection can also help to protect the
firefighters and other emergency personnel who respond to the fire.
But what happens if a fire occurs at your company during the
night or in a remote area of the business?
No one may be there to notice or report the fire. By the
time neighbors or passerby realize there’s a fire in the building, the facility
may be engulfed in flames.
A Tulsa or OKC fire
alarm monitoring service will protect your commercial or residential
property 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, immediately notifying you and the
authorities in the event of a fire. These alarm monitoring services can also
watch for burglaries and other emergencies such as carbon monoxide, gas and
water leaks, and frozen pipes, and will quickly dispatch the appropriate
emergency personnel, giving the exact location of the emergency to the hasten
response time.
If the fire alarm system is not monitored, the residents
themselves must quickly contact the authorities. In the panic and confusion of
a fire, it may be difficult for employees to contact the local fire department
and give quick and accurate information and still have enough time to safely
leave the building.
Also, many insurance companies will give home and business
owners a discount for using an alarm monitoring service that complies with
certain standards including UL and NFPA.
Fire alarm monitoring thus gives you the greatest protection
in a fire. Wireless alarm monitoring from MacNet
offers the most reliable as well as cost-effective alarm monitoring service in
Oklahoma using mesh radio technology. This alarm monitoring will be
up-and-running regardless of weather conditions or natural disaster ensuring
