Fire Extinguisher Service

Fire extinguishers are a critical line of defense against fires which can move quickly and may not immediately be detected by the other protection systems in place. In Greenville, where there is a dense population of 2293 residents per square mile, it’s incredibly important that your workplaces and colleagues are prepared for action at all times—emergencies can break out in seconds. Before a fire sprinkler or suppression system is activated and emergency personnel can arrive, it’s important to educate your team on knowing where extinguishers are located and being ready to operate them in times of emergency. Pye-Barker’s fire extinguisher experts provide inspection, testing, maintenance and recharge to help you maintain code compliance and protect your people, even providing hands-on extinguisher and safety training in person. Preparation is key when it comes to guarding your business from the very real threat of fire.

Fire Alarms & Detection

Greenville is expected to grow in the coming years, and as the population and business sector adjust, keep in mind that your fire protection must keep facilities covered and stay up-to-date in case of emergency. When a fire occurs, noxious fumes can be released rapidly and leave occupants disoriented and in danger. Knowing the next steps is critical: your business’s fire detection and alarm systems must be prepared to alert those inside the facilities to evacuate and notify the fire department as soon as possible. Our team in Greenville is ready to test, inspect, maintain, install, and design systems that help keep you safe and prepared for risk. We provide the following services so you can be prepared for the worst and continue putting the best foot forward.

Code Compliance & Reporting

Code compliance matters a great deal, not just because of legal reasons—being up to code means that you have reassurance that your systems are ready to be deployed in time of need. We take fire codes and standards seriously, making sure that each detail complies with the highest level of compliance. Our technicians at Greenville can schedule regular inspections and maintenance to keep things running smoothly. It’s important to stay within the guidelines of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and local fire codes and standards so that you can operate knowing your systems are ready to act. Our process involves determining the state of your systems and formulating a plan alongside you so repairs and upgrades are timely and done right. Common code compliance violations we solve for include:

• Missing or damaged smoke detectors
• Painted, dirty or blocked sprinkler heads

• Blocked fire alarms, extinguishers or emergency exits
• Expired fire extinguishers
• Missing emergency lighting
