Fire Inspections
The Oregon Fire Code requires that all occupancies, other than one- and two-family residences, be inspected on a frequent basis for fire and life safety.
The inspections are performed by both fire prevention officers and on-duty firefighters who remain on call for emergency responses. They look for such hazards as obstructed exit ways, substandard electrical wiring and equipment, unsafe storage practices, and fire protection systems that are not in working order. Another important aspect of the inspections process is to educate the building or business owners about fire and life safety and how to respond appropriately in an emergency situation.
Home fire safety inspections are available by request and can be scheduled, if needed.
