Its essential for your safety that your fire alarm is always in proper working order. If something isnt working correctly, your entire system may be useless in stopping or warning of an accident, depending on what kind of protection system you have. With a fire alarm system, wont have to think about your fire protection that often but that doesnt mean you should forget about it entirely. It only takes one accident at the wrong time for a disaster to occur. https://www.amptec.ca/b/do-you-know-when-you-should-repair-

You must have noticed emergency lights in offices and commercial buildings. But have you ever wondered about its purpose? It is a simple device, operating on a small battery connected to the main electrical supply (which keeps the battery charged). As per the building codes, nowadays it is mandatory to have these lights installed in all non-residential properties. The emergency light activates when there is a power outage and highlights exit signs to assist evacuation. To make sure it is working properly, you should ideally conduct inspection and testing once a month. At Amptec Fire and Security, we help you test and maintain emergency and exit lighting. https://www.amptec.ca/b/how-to-test-if-an-emergency-light-w

Emergencies like fires or gas leaks can happen anytime without warning. If you own a business, big or small, it is better to be prepared for the risks. Small businesses tend to follow less formal processes and have less rigorous business continuity plans. With more at stake, the possibility of hazardous events shouldnt be taken lightly. In addition to property and monetary loss, there can even be loss of lives in such scenarios. You should develop an emergency response plan to meet the specific needs of your business. Be prepared with safety products like emergency lights and fire extinguishers available at Amptec Fire and Security. https://www.amptec.ca/b/emergency-planning-for-small-busine

A smoke detector is a device which detects smoke, usually indicating a fire. Commercial fire monitoring systems activate a fire alarm control panel whereas residential smoke detectors (commonly known as smoke alarms) provide a local audible or visual alarm from the detector itself. The smoke detectors are kept in plastic enclosures and can detect smoke both optically (photoelectric) and through a physical process (ionization). A central fire alarm system is usually used to power smoke detectors. Residential smoke detectors can either be individual battery-powered units or have numerous interlinked mains-powered units with battery backup. All the interlinked units are triggered if any one of the units detects smoke. https://www.amptec.ca/b/how-often-should-you-replace-your-s

GUIDANCE FOR FARMERS MARKETS AND PUBLIC MARKETS: Businesses, communities and organizations across the province are preparing to reopen and resume operations as part of Alberta's relaunch strategy. This guidance supports sectors that were allowed to operate during the pandemic or could reopen under Stage 1 of relaunch.

While we face a long road to recovery, our collective efforts have helped slow the spread of COVID-19. We must ensure the sacrifices we've already made are not wasted. To be successful, we must stay vigilant to slow the spread: follow public health measures, practice physical distancing and good hygiene, and continue acting responsibly.

If a fire hydrant isnt visible or properly maintained, its of little use to firefighters in a fire emergency. While most public hydrants are maintained by the municipality, if youre a homeowner with a private fire hydrant on your property, it also requires annual maintenance to flush out debris. A one-stop shop for all your fire safety needs, you can rely on our experienced team at Amptec to check for signs of leaking or rusting before and after flushing a hydrant. Well also test for adequate water pressure and drainage and are capable of replacing components (pumps, valves, standpipes, pressure switches, etc.), lubricating the nozzle caps and even repainting the hydrant if necessary to ensure it complies with all posted requirements for satisfactory operating conditions.

If you can stay home we strongly advise you to do so

A fire alarm system consists of a central control and indicating equipment with detectors, manual call point, and sounders connected to it. If smoke or heat is detected, or if someone breaks the glass unit, an alarm sounder would then warn the occupants of the building to evacuate. Properly maintained fire alarm systems are effective and life-saving devices.

The costs associated with installing a sprinkler system will vary, but its usually significantly less than upgrading your carpets, paving a driveway or installing a Whirlpool bath. Plus it can actually help you reduce your homeowners insurance premium. Its estimated that property losses are about 85% less in homes with sprinkler systems when compared to those without them. While many may think a smoke detector is sufficient protection for the home, many smoke detectors fail because the batteries are either dead or removed. The reality is you cant afford not to invest in a sprinkler system, for there may come a time when your life and livelihood may depend upon it.

Lock-and-key systems can be inconvenient and time-consuming: you cant control who copies a key, its difficult to limit when and where theyre used, and its a major inconvenience to change the locks if a key gets into the wrong hands. This is why so many businesses favour security card access. These systems use a key card and scanner to limit access to authorized personnel only. Its easy to block access to certain cards, to restrict when and where cards are used, and even keep track of the comings and goings of employees.

Stay safe and keep on social distancing!
