Fire Protection Systems Confidence Testing

Read more about testing and reporting your business/property's life safety protection system.

The City of Oak Harbor now uses the cloud based, Tegris Fire Inspection Service to track inspections of fire safety equipment, as required by the International Fire Code for commercial structures. The Tegris system automatically moves the inspection process between the property owner, inspection service provider, and Fire Code Official to keep all fire safety systems inspected and repaired in a timely manner.

Property owners, or their designee, are solely responsible for the timely testing of fire protection devices, correcting deficiencies, and reporting test results. Automatic courtesy notifications from Tegris Fire Inc. may be sent when systems are due for testing.
