We know that life safety is the basis for fire monitoring. We offer complete fire protection services for your customers.
 
Commercial Fire Monitoring offers dispatch upon receipt of a fire alarm signal and customizable notification on troubles, supervisories and missed timer tests. Signals are received in our UL Listed central stations equipped with receivers and equipment meeting UL standards. We strictly follow NFPA 72 Guidelines for fire accounts ensuring best practices are followed. Specially trained UL certified operators and dealer support representatives handle UL Fire accounts and comply with the local AHJ.

2. Alarm Receivers
 
Fire accounts are on a receiver reserved solely for fire accounts and must comply with specific
UL requirements.

• UL fire accounts follow guidelines set by NFPA Code 72, the local fire marshal or other AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction).
 

• CMS uses two top-tier carriers: AT&T® and Verizon®.
 

• When a prefix is set up for fire, we have at least two numbers, each from a different carrier, meeting the NFPA requirement for dual reporting methods.
 

• Our load capacity uses five receivers with 24 line cards each, in addition to our System 3 configuration.*

 
*Based on time studies.

3. Automation
 
Using UTC Mastermind, fire signals are assigned to operators with specific fire training to respond to commercial fire/NFPA fire signals. Only operators who have passed our training for UL Fire respond to UL Fire accounts. Fire signals hold the highest priority in our monitoring platform, Mastermind.

4. Response
 
When a signal is received by an operator, they're working on a strict time line and follow specific guidelines set by the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA).
