The owner or manager of the property should conduct monthly visual inspections of these systems to ensure compliance with local laws, insurance requirements and manufacturer warranties.

A fire suppression system is most sought after by business owners as being a complete solution to the threat of fire. The fire suppression system is an automated, interconnected setup of fire safety equipment, including fire extinguishers and fire alarms.

Proper placement of the system (location) offering clear access.

Maintenance certificate/tag is in place and visible; tamper indicators and seals are intact.

There is no physical damage to the system that is visible to the eye.
