INSPECTION, TESTING & NFPA COMPLIANCE
NFPA Fire Inspection Services in Connecticut
A fire alarm system that isn't regularly inspected and tested is a liability — not an asset. Devices degrade over time, grease and dust build up in detectors, batteries lose capacity, and panel connections loosen. Annual inspection catches these issues before they become failures.
DetectionTech provides licensed NFPA fire alarm inspections for commercial properties across all eight Connecticut counties — delivering the compliance documentation your property needs and handling any repairs or replacements found during the inspection.

Connecticut requires annual NFPA fire alarm inspections for virtually all commercial properties. Operating without a current inspection report puts your property out of compliance and creates liability exposure.
CONNECTICUT REQUIREMENTS
Who is Required to Have an Annual Fire Inspection?
Any Connecticut building with a commercial fire alarm system needs it inspected and tested every year under NFPA 72. That typically includes:
Your local fire marshal or insurance carrier may ask for the inspection report at any time. Not sure if your building qualifies? Call us and we'll tell you.

HOW WE WORK
How We Inspect Occupied Commercial Buildings
Most fire alarm inspections happen while a building is open, so we plan every step to keep people safe and informed. Your system stays protected the entire time, and alarms only sound when we're testing them on purpose.
-
Schedule around you. We set the date and time with your manager, and can test horns and strobes early, after hours or on weekends.
-
Notify everyone. We tell the monitoring center your account is on test, alert the fire department when your town requires it, and help you post notices for tenants and staff.
-
Test in sections. We work zone by zone and floor by floor, so only one area hears the alarms at a time.
-
Restore and confirm. Before we leave, we put the system back in service and confirm the monitoring center is receiving signals again.
-
Deliver the report. You get the full compliance report, plus a plan for any device that needs repair.
