Texas Fire Watch Regulations and Codes
Local municipalities and the state of Texas requires fire watch on duty any time your business faces an elevated fire hazard. The most common reason businesses need fire watch is when emergency fire systems are offline. Emergency fire systems can be alarms, fire suppression systems, or sprinklers. Fire watch must conduct a regular patrol whenever these systems are down. Local fire marshals require hourly documentation of each patrol. To stay in line with codes, the watch personnel must communicate with local officials.
Fire watch patrol will walk every square foot of the building, looking for any signs of fire, smoke, or other hazards. If there is any sign of a fire, the patrol on duty will assist with evacuations and notify emergency fire response teams.
Why Do Businesses in Texas Need Fire Watch?
The first duty of fire watch is to protect lives. Fire watch professionals are trained to protect building occupants from harm caused by fire. In addition to protecting the lives of occupants, fire protection is required for businesses to stay open. If a building is at a higher risk of fire and does not have adequate protections, the business can be shut down or heavily penalized.
