Silco Fire Protection Sprinkler Service
Fire Pumps, Sprinkler Systems, Foam, Water-Mist, and other water-spray systems can be just as complex as an engineered fire system. Wet-valves, dry-valves, double-interlocked pre-action, cycling systems, bladder tanks… it may all seem a little overwhelming.
Many customers, although they may not admit it, may not even realize what type of systems or equipment they have. Let us be your expert on inspecting your water based fire protection systems. We can let you know what you have, what the service requirements are, and the best ways to insure that your water based system(s) continue to function properly for years to come.
Inspection And Service Is Our Specialty 23,000 customers rely on Silco for periodic inspection and service of critical fire protection equipment. Many Sprinkler installation firms do inspections in between installation jobs or when new installation work slows down. We found in many cases this practice frequently results in "overdue inspections" which can cause serious liability concerns.
With Silco, inspection, service and repairs are our mainstay. They always come first.  Consolidate by bundling your fire protection services. Silco services are unique in that our customers can use us as a single source supplier. This gives Silco the responsibility of maintaining all fire protection requirements, simplifying the mission to stay current with all required fire protection equipment inspections and tests.
