Questions
Alarm Monitoring — frequently asked
Do fire alarm companies need a Texas state license?
Yes. A company must hold a Fire Alarm Certificate of Registration (ACR) from the Texas SFMO, and each technician who installs, services, or monitors alarm systems must hold the matching individual fire alarm license.
How often does Texas require a commercial fire alarm system to be tested?
NFPA 72, the SFMO's adopted minimum standard, calls for a full functional test at least once a year, with a semiannual visual inspection of initiating devices. Some device types, like waterflow switches, test quarterly, and your local AHJ can require more.
Does the annual fire alarm test cover the monitoring connection?
Yes. A proper NFPA 72 test verifies that the communicator actually reaches the central monitoring station, not just that the panel and devices function locally.
How long do fire alarm inspection records need to be kept?
Licensed companies keep inspection and test records and make them available to the property owner and the local AHJ; three years is a commonly cited minimum, though a specific jurisdiction may ask for longer.
