For Houston Commercial Fire Alarm Monitoring Permits
For new systems, your fire alarm company will need to submit engineered drawings and apply for a Fire Alarm Installation Permit. You also need a Fire Alarm Monitoring Permit, which you may apply for yourself. If we dispatch on your fire alarm and you don’t have a permit, you can and probably will be fined. If you have any questions about getting your fire alarm monitoring permit and live inside the City of Houston city limits, please call us.
