Fire Can Strike Anywhere, Even the Happiest Place on Earth
Minor incident near Disneyland's It's a Small World is a reminder of the need for constant fire vigilance for all businesses, notes Fire Protection Group, Inc.
LOS ANGELES, March 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Late last month, a small fire reportedly broke out behind It's a Small World, one of the most famous of Disneyland's many attractions. According to media reports, the incident appears to have been related to a fireworks display mishap. Fortunately, the small fire remained small; no injuries and no significant damage were reported. Fire Protection Group, Inc. would like to point out that it's likely that a good part of the reason the incident remained minor was due to the preparation and caution exercised by the Disney organization, which is generally known for its high level of professionalism and safety consciousness. Other organizations should follow Disney's lead in maintaining a level of preparedness both in preventing fires and of limiting the potential damage should a fire occur.
For owners, managers, or commercial properties of all types, the need to ensure that necessities such as fire alarm systems are in full working order and in line with all relevant ordinances and fire codes has never been more crucial. Particularly in Southern California, where our increasingly dry weather patterns tend to magnify fire dangers during most of the year, the difference between maintaining the highest level of fire preparedness and half-hearted fire prevention safety matters can literally be a matter of life and death.
Moreover, due to the possible expenses involved with a serious fire incident, a blaze can make the difference between life and death not only for an individual, but for a business. Working with a company like FPG, Inc. in order to ensure that all aspects of a property are as fire safe as possible is not only a matter of moral obligation, but one of fiduciary responsibility. Fortunately for Southern California businesses, expert help is available. The full range of services—from ensuring that any needed fire escapes are in place, to complete fire pump testing—are available for companies along with the expert consulting services of one of the most savvy teams in the field.
Fire Protection Group is led by its chief engineer and general manager George Saadian, and he is supported by two widely respected veterans of the Los Angeles Fire Department. Retired LAFD Chief Al Hernandez and Captain Bob Holloway have both been intimately involved with helping those in charge of properties of all sizes to maximize their level of fire safety throughout their lengthy careers. Moreover, Mr. Saadian and Chief Hernandez have helped to revise many of the fire codes currently in place through the code of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). Few others in the field are able to help companies ensure that the risk of fire and the threat of significant fire damage is kept to an absolute minimum at all times.
If you are the owner and/or manager of a business or residential property concerned about minimizing fire danger, it may be highly advisable to contact Fire Protection Group as quickly as possible. Please visit their website, www.firesprinkler.com, or call 888-251-3488.
