Emergency Lighting Inspections for Dallas, Buda, Prosper, Fort Worth and Austin, TX

Emergency Lighting is one of the most overlooked safety items in facilities across the country. Which is ironic since they play such a key role in the event of an emergency. Imagine staying in a hotel and waking up to alarms blaring. You jolt out of bed and try to get your family to safety. The power is out so you are relying on the emergency systems to work properly so that you can see the way to the exit, but the exit lights are not working. As a commercial facility operator, we owe it to our guests to maintain these systems properly for emergencies like this hypothetical one.

Emergency lighting exist to ensure the safety of your guests by illuminating the exit signs so that they can evacuate the facility in the event of fire, power outage, or other disaster. In the event of a disaster or power outage, your exit lights are powered by batteries allowing guests to exit to safety. To ensure these lights provide adequate illumination, it is required that they be inspected once a year. Your emergency lighting is something that the local and state authorities require, but don’t always enforce like they should. This doesn’t mean as a business owner that you should become complacent on maintaining them. Like many other services in your facility, these items can become liability blind spots for your business. Having these lights tested each year provide you with documentation of compliance and allow you to protect yourself from costly lawsuits that could shut down your facility.

At Boss Fire Protection we provide these inspections during our annual and semiannual inspections of your facilities’ fire extinguishers and kitchen fire suppression systems. Our technicians simply put the lights in test mode, check the lights, and perform our other inspections. At the end of the 90 minutes, we come back through and verify that the battery is good, tag the light as being inspected or make the necessary repairs needed.
