How do I prepare for my inspection?
To avoid additional fees, go to the Fire Prevention section of this website and read the CO Requirements form. If you have a Central Station alarm, 15 minutes prior to the inspectors arrival, the alarm company must be notified that the alarm system will be put on test for 30 minutes. You will need your alarm code in order to turn off the system.Fire Prevention CO Requirements
