Daylight Savings Time Tied To Fire Preparedness with "Change Your Clocks, Change Your Batteries" Campaign

LOS ANGELES, March 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- While many know the beginning of March as the time that we set our clocks an hour forward, Fire Protection Group and a plethora of national fire preparedness organizations are urging families and businesses to take this yearly tradition as a reminder to make sure that your home or building is fully prepared for a fire. Numerous organizations are bringing awareness to the "Change Your Clocks, Change Your Batteries" campaign which designates daylight savings time as a convenient yearly marker for making sure your fire safety measures are up to par. While, for many homeowners, this simply means changing the batteries in the smoke detectors and forming a family fire escape plan, many business are faced with much more complex fire preparedness needs. Luckily, George Saadian and the other experienced fire safety pros at Fire Protection Group are here to help.

Unlike homes, businesses are subject to much more stringent fire codes established by the National Fire Protection Association.  Businesses that install fire sprinklers also need regular NFPA25 testing to ensure that those fire sprinklers will function properly in the event of a fire. Fire Protection Group excels at NFPA25 testing for two main reasons. The first is that general manager George Saadian is an expert in the area of fire codes. He has actually written some of the currently standing NFPA codes. He passes this knowledge on to every member of his staff to ensure that anyone who administers NFPA tests has this inside advantage.

The second reason that Fire Protection Group is a leader in NFPA25 testing is that they also design, build, and install fire sprinkler systems, so they are extremely familiar with the systems that they are inspecting. They can also install and inspect stand pipes, which can be some of the most integral tools in fighting a fire in a large office or apartment building. Stand pipes are responsible for getting water up to the top levels of buildings so that fire fighters have access to water on any floor. Having these installed and properly maintained can save tons in property damage costs and, most importantly, countless lives.

Fire Protection Group provides a variety of other services including fire alarm services to alert both the people in the building and the fire department that a fire has broken out. If your building is not fully prepared to control the outbreak of a fire, a call to Fire Protection Group may be in order. You never know when a fire might occur, so take this daylight savings adjustment as a reminder to get your fire protection affairs in order.
