Clark County · Commercial fire protection
Fire protection,done right in Vancouver.
Commercial fire protection, inspection, and testing for Vancouver, Washington facilities — the downtown waterfront, medical campuses, warehousing and industrial along the Columbia, and multifamily across Clark County.
Why Vancouver is different
The Vancouver commercial fire-protection landscape.
Vancouver sits across the Columbia River from Portland and has its own fast-growing commercial base: waterfront redevelopment downtown, hospitals and medical office, port and industrial users, distribution near I-5 and I-205, and a large multifamily market. The Vancouver Fire Department Fire Marshal’s Office requires every fire protection contractor working inside city limits to upload inspection, testing, and maintenance reports — and related repairs — within 30 days of service, using Vancouver-approved report forms. The city also keeps a list of endorsed fire protection contractors.
