Fire system coordination

Alarm & Hood Coordination

When sprinkler work affects fire alarms, monitoring or kitchen hood-suppression systems, AO clarifies responsibilities and coordinates the required work for the owner.

Quick answer

When does a property need alarm or hood coordination?

Some sprinkler deficiencies, tenant projects and restaurant work require a qualified alarm, monitoring or hood-suppression provider. AO identifies who is responsible for each part of the work and coordinates the required next steps.

Common questions

Does AO perform all alarm or hood-suppression work directly?

Some specialized alarm, monitoring or hood work may require a qualified partner. AO helps identify that need and coordinate the next step.

What should I send AO first?

A fire marshal notice, deficiency report, address and any existing alarm, hood or monitoring vendor details are helpful.

Clear provider coordination

Coordinated support when sprinkler work affects alarms, monitoring or hood-suppression systems.
