Electrical Fire at Seal Beach Pier Highlights Importance of Fire Protection Consulting, Notes Fire Protection Group Inc.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) June 15, 2016 -- An article published June 8 on Patch reveals that the cause for the Seal Beach Pier fire that occurred in May was an electrical malfunction. The pier suffered millions of dollars in damages as well as the complete destruction of two buildings, Patch reports. George Saadian, the lead engineer at Fire Protection Group Inc. (FPG Inc.), notes that costly damages, like the one at Seal Beach Pier, can likely be avoided if business owners seek proper fire protection services. These may include:
Fire Pumps - FPG Inc. notes that many business owners, especially those who conduct their work in skyscrapers, are often unaware of the potential fire hazards that can ruin both their work and their finances. Ideal for tall buildings, the fire pumps manufactured at FPG Inc. are created to allow water to flow to the top floors of a high-rise building that have caught fire. The team of highly skilled engineers at FPG Inc. note that, at great heights, water is often restricted from flowing into a building’s sprinkler system during a fire due to the effects of gravity. That’s why acquiring fire pumps that harness the power of steam, electric, or diesel engines, like the ones manufactured at FPG Inc., are ideal in offering the most protection against the costly damages that can occur in a devastating fire.
Fire Watch - Oftentimes, even when a building has installed an effective fire sprinkler system, the protection systems might have to be deactivated due to circumstances such as maintenance or repair. This increases the risk to a building and the employees inside it. To remedy this, FPG Inc. notes that they offer services such as fire watch to save lives and property from fire. This highly trained and experienced team is sent to an at-risk building with a firetruck and is placed on fire watch for 24 hours a day, for as long as they are needed.
Fire Protection Consulting - Inspection of a building’s fire prevention systems should be a routine matter. An inspector’s job is to make sure the owner has a clear understanding of fire safety protocol and is aware of any changes in the fire code. In the case that the property owner is instructed to make extensive changes to their fire prevention system during an inspection, Fire Protection Group Inc. notes that utilizing their highly qualified fire protection consulting professionals can aid the property owner in making sure that these changes are absolutely necessary, saving the business owner time, resources and money.
