Fire Watch services in Pasadena
Pasadena has many historic and older buildings, from Old Pasadena storefronts to Craftsman-era apartments in Bungalow Heaven and Madison Heights, along with medical offices, research space near Caltech and large venues like the Rose Bowl. Older fire systems need regular repair, and renovation work brings hot work and temporary shutdowns. The Pasadena Fire Department may require a fire watch when systems are impaired. APS provides fire watch in Pasadena with trained guards who usually start the same day.
Our Pasadena fire watch guards make set rounds through the whole building, including basements, attics where accessible, hallways and parking areas. They keep a fire watch log, check that exits are open and extinguishers are in place, and call 911 at the first sign of fire. Each round is checked in with GPS and backed with time-stamped photos, so you have a clean record for the fire department, the owner and insurance.
