CODE COMPLIANCE CONSULTATION


A visit by a fire inspector is something every business owner dreads. The best way to avoid steep fines or costly forced shutdowns is to turn to Auto-Tech Fire Systems' code compliance experts.

Our certified technicians use their decades of experience as fire inspectors and fire department officials to evaluate your facilities and explain your options. They give reports, not citations, letting you know what is wrong before it becomes an issue with a fire inspector.

"While fire officials often give you between a week and a month to correct problems, they do have the authority to shut down your shop if their is a significant risk," explains Auto-Tech hazard consultant, John Raber. "In contrast, an inspector may walk through your entire building without saying a word, and then send you a citation a week later with a fine attached."


THE IMPORTANCE OF MOCK INSPECTIONS

Let's face it, no business owner tries to make his or her facilities dangerous. The truth is, the task of knowing all you need to keep up to code would require a lot of time and a lot of reading -- a 3 feet high stack of books with very small print, to be exact!

With what it takes to run a business these days, who has the time? But then again, can you afford the consequences?

That's where our code compliance consultants come in -- they know the code, so you don't have to! They can point out everything from electrical risks to trip hazards.

And with their report comes real answers on how you can best fix the problems. If it's something that our company doesn't repair, then we can refer you to reputable area specialists that do.

The cost of a mock inspection is far less than what your fines can total and keeps your business' records spotless.
