Commercial Fire Sprinkler Inspection FAQs 

How often do commercial fire sprinklers need to be inspected? 

How often commercial fire sprinklers need to be inspected depends on the system type, components, occupancy, applicable codes, manufacturer requirements, and the Authority Having Jurisdiction. NFPA 25 includes inspection and testing activities at different intervals, which may range from weekly or monthly checks to quarterly, semiannual, annual, and longer-term evaluations. GEM can review your system and help determine an appropriate service schedule. 

What is an NFPA 25 inspection? 

An NFPA 25 inspection is an evaluation performed using applicable requirements from NFPA 25, the standard for inspecting, testing, and maintaining water-based fire protection systems. The scope depends on the system and may include sprinklers, control valves, gauges, piping, fire department connections, waterflow devices, and other accessible components. 

What happens during a sprinkler inspection? 

During a sprinkler inspection, a qualified technician visually examines applicable system components for conditions that could affect performance. The technician may check valve positions, gauges, piping, sprinkler heads, hangers, signage, fire department connections, and other equipment. Required testing is performed separately or as part of the scheduled service scope. GEM then documents system condition and identifies deficiencies requiring attention. 

What sprinkler deficiencies are commonly found? 

Sprinkler deficiencies commonly found during inspections include painted, corroded, damaged, obstructed, or improperly positioned sprinkler heads. Other findings may include closed or unsecured control valves, leaks, damaged piping, missing signage, outdated gauges, inadequate clearance, or inaccessible fire department connections. GEM can explain the findings and recommend appropriate fire sprinkler maintenance or repairs.
