Global Fire Technologies, Inc. is a Hole-in-One for Fire Safety

LOS ANGELES, April 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In Los Angeles, Reg. 4 fire testing – designed by the LAFD to ensure the effectiveness of a building's fire safety equipment – can prove challenging to many property owners. However, it's not nearly as daunting as the dangers that can spring from an uncontrolled fire. That's why so many residents of Los Angeles and surrounding areas trust LAFD-certified Global Fire Technologies, Inc. to aid in Reg. 4 testing and other fire inspection needs. Global Fire stands apart from lesser fire alarm system companies by taking a truly comprehensive approach to fire safety. They understand that no matter how safety conscious you may be, the danger of out-of-control fire remains a complex threat that can spring from places you least expect it – even somewhere as seemingly innocuous as the golf course.

The risk of fire is always high in Southern California, but one place where one might feel like they can let their guard down is on the golf course – but as the team at Global Fire can tell you – that's not necessarily the case. In fact, CBS News in Los Angeles recently reported that titanium alloy golf clubs pose a significant risk of causing wildfire when swung and struck against a rock.

Though most golf courses are kept green and lush through regular watering, any bit of dry foliage could be catch fire from the sparks created by a titanium club if it hits a rock under certain conditions. These findings were published last month in the peer-reviewed journal Fire and Materials, and come from a study requested by Orange County fire investigators looking to determine if the clubs could have caused fires on courses in Irvine and Mission Viejo in recent years. The results are a reminder of the importance of fire prevention professionals like those at Global Fire for protection of your investments and those under your care.

From their headquarters in Tujunga, CA, Global Fire is widely recognized throughout the region as a leader in fire life safety. The fully licensed and bonded company provides assurance to their clients by staying up-to-date with all necessary licenses and certifications and boasting over 100 years of combined experience in the fire protection industry.

Their work often proves invaluable to those looking to make sure their property can pass stringent local, state and federal requirements put forth through Regulation 4, Title 19 central station testing, and other fire codes.

There's nothing wrong with taking time off to relax now and then, whether that means sitting poolside or hitting the links. Remember, though; no matter where you are, fire danger in Southern California never takes a vacation, so trust the team at Global Fire for your fire prevention needs, and enjoy the peace-of-mind knowing you're in the hands of expert professionals.
