Protect Your Business with a Commercial Fire Alarm System
Protect Your Business With a State-Of-The-Art, Commercial Fire Alarm System
It is a little known fact that approximately 80,000 commercial fires occur every year in the United States, and that these fires cause approximately:
- 3,000 fatalities
- 18,000 injuries
- 10 billion dollars in damages[1]
Although some commercial fires are caused by elements beyond anyone’s control, nearly 85% of commercial fires occur as a result of error or intent. Armed with this knowledge, it is clear why it is wise for owners or workers in commercial buildings to be aware of the common causes of these commercial fires, as well as how to prevent them.
Common Causes of Commercial Fires
- Commercial electric fires are generally the result of an overloaded system, or the violation of electrical codes by an untrustworthy contractor.
- Commercial kitchen fires are the most common cause of any fire throughout the United States.
- Improper storage methods, which place flammable materials in close contact with a heat source, are often responsible for commercial fires.
- Boilers, heaters, and furnaces that have been neglected or poorly maintained can be a potential source of commercial fires.
- Areas designated for smoking are common sites for commercial fires.
