Understanding the five classes of fire is essential for comprehensive fire safety preparedness. Each class represents different types of fuel and requires specific approaches for extinguishment. Class A fires, fueled by ordinary combustibles like wood and paper, are common in residential and office settings. They can typically be extinguished with water or foam. Class B fires involve flammable liquids such as gasoline and paint, requiring smothering agents like dry chemical powder or carbon dioxide extinguishers.

Class C fires involve electrical equipment and should be handled cautiously to avoid electrical shock, using non-conductive agents like carbon dioxide or dry powder. Class D fires, involving combustible metals like titanium and magnesium, demand specialized dry powder extinguishers due to the unique properties of metal fires. Lastly, Class K fires, typically found in commercial kitchens from cooking oils and fats, require wet chemical extinguishers to effectively smother the flames.

A fire protection system is a crucial part of any fire protection infrastructure protecting any building. 

The Global Fire Suppression Systems Market Report discusses the growth of the fire suppression market and answers questions such as: how much is the fire suppression system market growing? Why is it growing? What does this mean for the future of the fire protection industry?

In this blog, we will summarize some significant findings of the report and discuss what these findings could mean for the fire protection industry. 

What is the Fire Suppression Systems Market Report 2022?

The Fire Suppression Market Report analyzes and forecasts the market based on:

  • Suppression reagent
  • Product
  • Sector
  • Geography

Let’s take a look at some of the report’s predictions.

The Fire Suppression System Market Will Witness Significant Growth

The fire suppression market has experienced significant growth in the past few years. In fact, in 2018, the fire suppression market was projected to reach USD 29.13 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 4.87% between 2018 and 2023.

In 2021, the global fire suppression system market size was valued at USD 16.8 billion and is expected to witness a CAGR of 4.8% from 2022 to 2030.

What do these statistics tell us? The fire suppression system market has experienced significant growth and shows no signs of slowing; this growth will likely continue well into the 2030’s.

What Caused the Growth in the Fire Suppression Industry?

The growth can be attributed to several factors. For instance, these factors may include:

  • The growing importance on preventing casualties and damage to infrastructure due to fire breakouts 
  • Rising awareness among consumers about the latest fire protection systems

Fire suppression systems can be considered one of the critical systems installed in buildings or establishments. Fire suppression systems play a vital role in protecting people and properties in the event of a fire accident.

How Did the COVID-19 Pandemic Slow the Growth of the Industry?

The 2018 Global Fire Suppression System Market Report predicted massive growth in the industry and while there was still growth, the report could not consider the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The effects of the pandemic, most prevalent in 2020 and 2021, rippled throughout the fire protection industry. For instance:

Delayed Fire Suppression System Installation

The outbreak of the COVID019 pandemic caused a series of lockdowns throughout the world as part of an effort to stop the spread of the virus. These lockdowns resulted in the pause or delay of many fire suppression systems at various locations in 2020 and some of 2021. 

However, as restrictions are lifted, these installations will likely be finished. 

Production

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed any weak links or inefficient areas in supply chains by creating a series of issues that trickled down the chain. These issues are caused by any lockdowns, ordinances or regulations leading to a labor shortage and deficit in materials.

As a result of the pandemic, freight costs spiked, shipments were delayed and the costs of goods experienced a severe increase. The production of fire suppression equipment has been disrupted by these issues, some production activities have been suspended temporarily. 

Similarly to the fire suppression system installations, the production of these systems is poised for growth once restrictions are gradually lifted and supply chains become more efficient. 

Why is the Fire Suppression Industry Expected to Grow More in 2023?

An increase in demand, regulatory mandates and a growing demand for environmentally friendly systems are all contributing factors to the continuous growth of the industry. Let’s take a closer look at each of these. 

Increased Demand

The Fire Suppression Market Report predicts increasing demand for fire protection systems from:

  •  Manufacturing units 
  • Incumbents of various industries and industry verticals, such as oil and gas, energy, and power

These industries are expected to drive the demand for fire suppression systems over the forecast period. Additionally, many system installations that were delayed during the pandemic will likely be continued throughout 2023, contributing to the increase in demand. 

Regulatory Mandates

According to the Fire Suppression Market Report, regulatory mandates and the adoption of fire safety standards across the globe will contribute to the growth of the industry.

These mandates – caused by an increasing number of fire accidents – may lead to the installation of fire suppression systems in residential and commercial buildings.

Insurance Requirements 

Additionally, some insurance agencies are considering making the installation of these systems mandatory before they will insure any building. This may lead to systems being installed in buildings such as:

  • Households
  • Residential apartments
  • Hotels
  • Schools
  • Hospitals
  • Restaurants 
  • Offices

These insurance requirements will likely cause many building owners who previously did not have a fire suppression system to invest in one, driving growth in the industry. 

Growing Demand for Environmentally Friendly Systems

Lastly, the Fire Suppression Market Report predicts a spike in demand for environment-friendly fire suppression systems.

These systems are most commonly used in newly constructed infrastructure, such as in residential, commercial and industrial construction.

How to Properly Prepare for a Fire Disaster

Fire safety is important in the workplace– just like it is anywhere else. A well-developed and thought-out course of action can keep you and your peers safe.

Here are a few statistics from 2017-2019 gathered by the U.S. Fire Administration on nonresidential building fires: 

  • 108,5000 nonresidential building fires were reported to U.S. fire departments each year 
  • Nonresidential fires caused over $2.8 billion in property loss 
  • These fires occur mostly during the hours of 2 pm – 7 pm
  • The leading cause of nonresidential fires is cooking 
  • Now that you know why you should prepare for potential office fires, let’s discuss the fire preparation measures that can help. 

Let’s discuss how to properly prepare for a fire disaster. 

Why Do You Need to Prepare for Potential Office Fires?

Fire damage is considered one of the most destructive elements to your commercial building because it can cause: 

  • Disruption of business activities
  • Loss of business documents
  • Damage to property 
  • Liability claims
  • Injury 
  • And more

Fire Preparation Tips

In the wise words of Miguel De Cervantes, “To be prepared is half the victory.” 

Here are a few tips on how to prepare in the event of a fire. 

1. Take the proper precautions for your building.

Fire prevention programs and precautions are put in place to ensure your building remains safe in case something happens. No… we don’t mean lighting the door handles on fire or setting off smoke bombs throughout your office. 

Here are some precautions you can take today.

  • Control smoking materials and open flames 
  • Store flammable and combustible liquids safely 
  • Use electrical equipment correctly 
  • Perform housekeeping tasks regularly 
  • Purchase fire-safe furnishings and decor 
  • Maintain commercial kitchen exhaust systems 
  • Control special hazards 

2. Let’s Talk About Fire Safety Education

Fire prevention relies on people knowing what to do when an emergency occurs. Fear and ambiguity are not a recipe for success, however, knowledge and preparedness are.

3.Educate your staff on the proper procedure if a fire occurs.

Safety plans can be explained through training, sent via email, and be posted on walls. When building a fire safety education program, include: 

  • How to identify and correct fire hazards
  • A detailed office building evacuation plan
  • How to use fire extinguishers
  • Examples of recent fires to highlight the importance of fire safety
  • Details of how to put out various types of fires, and when they are likely to occur

Implement Fire Protection and Life Safety systems

Fire protection shouldn’t be improvised. Put systems in place that protect the building, people, and items from fire hazards. These systems include fire alarm systems, fire suppression systems, and other building measures. There are both active and passive fire protection systems.

Active Fire Protection Systems prepare for a fire the right way

Active fire protection systems require some amount of action or motion to work efficiently. These systems can be manually operated, like a fire extinguisher, or automatic, like sprinkler systems. 

Some of these systems include: 

  • Fire/smoke alarm systems
  • Sprinkler Systems
  • Fire extinguishers
  • Sprinkler Systems
  • Firefighters are also considered active fire protection  

Passive Fire Protection Systems

Passive fire protection systems compartmentalize buildings to help prevent the spread of fire and smoke from one room to another. These systems help limit the amount of damage done to a building and give the occupants more time to evacuate.

Some of these systems include:

  • Fire/smoke dampers
  • Fire doors
  • Firewalls/floors

Both active and passive fire protection systems can help keep your building and your employees safe from harm.

Keep Up with Inspection and Testing

Inspection and testing of fire suppression systems are crucial. To comply with NFPA 72 regulations, inspection, testing, and maintenance of your fire alarm system are required on a semi-annual basis. A well-maintained fire alarm system keeps residents and property safe.

What is a Fire System Inspection?

A fire inspection is a process in which the fire department inspects a building or property to identify and access potential fire safety hazards.

How Often Should Fire Systems Be Inspected?

According to the NFPA code, inspections of your fire and life safety systems are required to occur on a quarterly and annual basis.

A Final Word

Your building’s fire preparation plan should be well thought out and organized in advance. By doing so, you help further protect your staff, business materials, and the commercial building from the dangers of fire hazards.

Why Facility Maintenance Matters During Hurricane Season

Building owners must take preventative measures such as facility maintenance and frequent inspections to protect people and commercial property.

Commercial building owners in Florida are no strangers to hurricanes. Why? More than 41% of hurricanes that hit the United States make some kind of landfall in the sunshine state.

Due to the frequency and severity of these storms, building owners must take preventative measures such as facility maintenance to protect their property during hurricane season.

Let’s discuss this further.

How to Prepare Your Facility for a Hurricane

Hurricanes are characterized by:

  • Strong, high-speed winds
  • Tornadoes
  • Torrential rains, and
  • Storm surges

Experts classified almost a third of hurricanes to hit Florida as Category 3 with winds ranging from 111 to 128 mph. This considered, building owners should prepare their commercial property to withstand these intense elements.

So, how can you prepare your facility for a hurricane? Commercial building owners can take the following steps:

  • Create a containment plan for any hazardous chemicals or on-site materials
  • Develop an emergency response plan
  • Invest in data backup servers and backup generators
  • Create an evacuation plan with multiple routes
  • Provide provisions for alternative communication systems
  • Make safety equipment accessible

In addition, commercial building owners should prioritize the maintenance of fire safety systems in their facilities to properly protect people and property.

Why Facility Maintenance is Crucial in a Hurricane

In the event of an emergency,  owners want to be sure the safety systems installed in their buildings work effectively. Why? These systems can make a difference in saving lives and property.

Saving Lives and Protecting Property

NFPA 1600 emphasizes the importance of assessing and addressing possible risks before a hurricane:

“5.4.1* The entity shall conduct a resource needs assessment based on the hazards identified in Section 5.2 and the business impact analysis in Section 5.3.

“A.5.4.1 Scenarios developed during the risk assessment and BIA should be used to identify resources needed by the program. Resources for emergency operations/response to protect life safety, stabilize the incident, and protect property should be identified.”

Additionally, NFPA 1600 discusses the necessity of automatic sprinkler systems. Since many natural catastrophes include a significant threat of fire, automatic sprinklers are essential.

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) suggests property owners have their automatic sprinkler systems inspected before hurricane season in case of such an emergency.

Insurance Purposes

Many insurance carriers require proof that property owners took reasonable measures to prevent damage before covering a claim. Building owners should keep in mind this can include both fire and flood property damage.

What Systems Should be Inspected Before a Hurricane?

Building owners can employ the help of an experienced technician to ensure other systems are properly installed, serviced, and maintained.

For example, these systems may include:

  • Fire alarm systems
  • Fire sprinkler systems
  • Backflow preventers
  • Fire extinguishers
  • Emergency and exit lighting
  • Fire pumps
  • Commercial kitchen fire suppression systems
  • Clean agent fire suppression systems
  • Access control
  • Intrusion systems
  • Fire hydrants
  • Foam systems, and
  • Elevator monitoring

How Often Should These Systems Be Inspected?

How often you service or inspect your fire protection services depends on the device. 

Some systems require inspections on a weekly, monthly, semi-annual, or annual  basis. However, all fire and life safety systems require at least an annual inspection.

Therefore, property owners do not need to wait before or during hurricane season to schedule an inspection for their safety systems. These systems should be checked year-round to ensure they will perform to the best of their ability at any time – hurricane season or not!

Understanding Inspections and Maintenance For Your Building

Some fire protection systems need to be maintained on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Building owners can protect people and property through keeping up with inspections.

Did you know that the fire department responds to a fire somewhere in the nation every 24 seconds? The numbers of fires and fire deaths have decreased since the 1970s, largely due to advancements in fire technology and quickened response time. With this being said, it’s important that your fire protection systems remain up to inspection and testing standards provided by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).

Here at LSM,  we are the Inspector Gadget for your fire protection systems. We find what’s not working and we help fix it. Here are a few things you need to know as you look to ensure your fire protection systems remain up to date with their inspection and testing.

What Items Need to be Inspected and Maintained? How Often?

Quarterly Inspection and Maintenance

There are a few fire protection systems that require quarterly regular inspections—mainly fire sprinkler systems. Fire sprinkler systems need to be inspected and maintained on a quarterly basis. This inspection and maintenance includes inspection of water flow devices, wolves, valve components, low air pressure alarms, and other components of your fire sprinklers.

Semi-Annual Inspection and Maintenance

Twice a year, your kitchen suppression systems need to be inspected (that is, if your facility has a kitchen). In addition, if your facility uses magnetic door locks, these must be inspected twice a year to ensure they remain operating correctly in the event the fire alarm is activated. 

Annual Inspection and Maintenance

Most of your fire protection systems need to be inspected and maintained annually. These inspections will be your most comprehensive and intensive inspection periods for fire alarms, fire suppression, and bi-directional amplification systems. 

In this annual inspection, over 20 components of your fire alarm systems will be tested and inspected. The major components include:

  • Control panel and component inspections
  • Fuse, LEDs, and power supply inspections
  • Component battery replacement
  • Pull station inspection
  • Voice/alarm communication system inspection

Your fire sprinkler systems will also be inspected during this time. These inspections also include 20 major components of your sprinkler systems. The major components include:

  • Main drain
  • Antifreeze solutions
  • Hose valves
  • Pump system
  • Drain test

Long-Term Inspection and Maintenance

There are a few components and systems that require long-term maintenance and inspection. Some of these components include fire alarm audibility testing, which should be performed every three years. In addition, fire extinguishers are scheduled for replacement every six years. Hood suppression systems in kitchens have multiple components that will need to be replaced every 12 years.

Fire Safety Inspection Requirements

Requirements for fire safety inspections vary state-by-state. Therefore, business owners and property managers need to be familiar with individual state fire codes, ordinances, and standards, and how to comply with these requirements. In general, some specific industries require more frequent fire safety inspections. These facilities include places of public assembly; including theaters, nightclubs, hotels, and hospitals. High-rises also need to adhere to strict fire code requirements, as these buildings have high occupancy and complex exit plans.

Are You Prepared For Your Fire Safety inspections?

Preparing for your fire inspections is essential—especially if you’re in the industries that are subject to unscheduled inspections. In order to prepare properly, you need to know how inspectors evaluate your building.

Let’s start with what inspectors are evaluating as a whole

As inspectors go through your building, they look for a few key things; including:

 

  • The ways fire could start within your specific building.
  • Safety systems in place, like smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and sprinkler systems. They ensure these systems are regularly maintained and in good working order. You should expect to be asked to see documentation on the regular maintenance of these systems.
  • Systems assisting in fire egress are working effectively, like lighted exit signs and exit doors. 
  • Lastly, inspectors ensure emergency personnel have easy, immediate access to the building.

100th Year of Fire Prevention Week

Since 1922, the National Fire Protection Association has sponsored the public observance of Fire Prevention Week. Throughout the past century, fire prevention week consisted of children and adults learning how to stay safe in case of a fire.

Since 1922, the National Fire Protection Association has sponsored the public observance of Fire Prevention Week. Throughout the past century, fire prevention week consisted of children and adults learning how to stay safe in case of a fire. Additionally, firefighters provide lifesaving public education in an effort to drastically decrease casualties caused by fires.

In this article, we’ll review the history of fire prevention week and reveal the 2022 campaign. Let’s dive in.

The History of Fire Prevention Week

In 1925, President Calvin Coolidge proclaimed Fire Prevention Week a national observance. This makes Fire Prevention Week the longest-running public health observance in the United States. 

Why FPW is the Week of October 9th

Fire Prevention Week is observed each year during the week of October 9th in commemoration of the Great Chicago Fire. According to History.com, the Great Chicago Fire “burned from October 8 to October 10, 1871, and destroyed thousands of buildings, killed an estimated 300 people and caused an estimated $200 million in damages.”

Fire prevention week occurs during the same week each year to honor the lives lost in the Great Chicago Fire and make efforts to prevent similar events from happening in the future. 

The 2022 “Fire Won’t Wait. Plan Your Escape” Campaign 

 The campaign of the 2022 Fire Prevention Week™ (FPW) is “Fire won’t wait. Plan your escape”™.  The campaign for 2022 strives to educate participants about simple but important actions they can take to keep themselves and others safe from home fires. Key focuses of this campaign include fire escape planning and practicing as well as alarms.

Why Fire Escape Plans Are so Important

According to NFPA, today’s homes burn faster than ever. In the event of a fire, you have about two minutes or less to safely escape from the time the alarm arounds. One’s ability to get out of the home during a fire depends on early warning from smoke alarms and advanced planning.

How to Start Creating a Fire Escape Plan

Every home is different and therefore, every fire escape plan will be different. Consider starting with these guidelines:

  • Draw your building floor plan using a grid.
  • Label all the rooms and identify the doors and windows.  
  • Plan two escape routes from every room.
  • Provide alternatives for anyone with a disability.
  • Agree on a meeting place where everyone will gather after you have escaped

Fire escape plans should consider everyone in the home or building. For example, children, older adults or people with disabilities may need additional assistance. Consider assigning someone to help them in the event of an emergency. 

While NFPA is focusing on home fires, these same concepts carry into commercial fires as well. An updated fire protection system and a practiced escape plan can save the lives of people in commercial buildings. Those working or owning commercial buildings can practice fire safety by ensuring their fire escape plan is well-known and practiced. 

Let’s Talk Fire and Smoke Alarms

Smoke alarms sense smoke well before people can and should effectively alert people of danger. As a general rule, alarms should be:

  • In every bedroom
  • Outside of the sleeping areas (such as a hallway, for example)
  • On each level, including the basement 

Smoke alarms should not be installed over the stove or in bathroom shower areas. The heat from these areas may trigger the alarm. 

The requirements for commercial buildings differ from standards for homes. We urge owners of commercial buildings to research the requirements for their property. Find more information on NFPA 72, here.

How to Prepare for Hurricane Season in Florida

hurricane incoming for hurricane season

It is important for building owners in Florida to know what to do to prepare their facilities for a potentially devastating storm. Why? Florida has been hit by more hurricanes than any other state. In fact, Florida has been hit by more than twice as many hurricanes as the next closest hurricane-prone state, Texas. Wow! In addition to that, more than 41% of hurricanes that hit the United States make some kind of landfall in Florida.

This means that building owners need to make significant efforts to protect their property for hurricane season. When it comes to natural disasters, taking preventative measures is key for protecting your commercial property.

Let’s discuss some methods building owners can employ to protect their property during hurricane season in Florida.

Know The Risks

Hurricanes can cause severe damage to property. These storms are characterized by strong, high-speed winds, tornadoes, torrential rains, and storm surges. Further, hurricanes in Florida are more likely to be severe; experts classified almost a third of hurricanes to hit Florida as Category 3, with winds from 111 to 128 mph. Because of this, owners with buildings in Florida should prepare their facilities to withstand these elements at their strongest intensities.

Create a Plan

Based on the above factors, create an action plan for your commercial property. Ensure all employees understand this preventative plan thoroughly.

Some factors to consider for a hurricane plan include but are not limited to:

  • A shelter plan
  • Company-wide communication
  • Evacuation route
  • Emergency warnings and alerts.

Get Other Resources Ready

Additionally, building owners should consider:

  • Reminding your staff about guidelines and/or policies that should be implemented or followed in the event of a hurricane.  All employees should be aware of their specific responsibilities in an emergency.
  • Reviewing your insurance policy to ensure that your business facility is protected from the losses resulting from hurricanes or other natural disasters.
  • Checking that their emergency kit includes essential items such as generators and hand tools
  • Backing up and securing all important data.

Prepare Your Property

A small act of preparation might save your building. When walking through your commercial property, there are a few key steps to take:

  • Clear all gutters and drains
  • Install check valves in plumbing
  • Trim and remove trees close to your building
  • Add sandbags as necessary (water pumps can be covered by water insurance in some cases but is not guaranteed)
  • Financial Preparation
  • As a business owner, it is crucial to understand your insurance policies and exactly what is covered. For example, most property insurance policies have a surface water exclusion. Have a safety fund available in case of the worst-case scenario.

What to Do After the Hurricane

An emergency response team should assess the building before people are allowed back to the premises. The purpose of this assessment is to identify any structural damage or hazard that needs to be fixed before the building can be occupied again.

Building owners and staff should only access the building after authorities give clearance.

Marine Fire Safety

Some of the key points to remember with marine safety are properly managing your:

  • Certifications and Documents
  • Fire Safety Equipment
  • Hurricane Preparedness Equipment
  • Engine Room Maintenance
  • Deck Maintenance and Crew Readiness
  • Emergency Equipment

Unfortunately, there is a long list of natural disasters to prepare for, like fires. And news flash, fire suppression, and fire sprinklers are not the same thing!
