Schedule Your Fire Inspection

Office of the Fire Marshal reminds occupancies to schedule fire inspections.

In accordance with the Connecticut General Statutes, Section 29-305, the Fire Marshal or his designee is required to inspect, in the public interest, all occupancies regulated by the Connecticut State Fire Prevention and Fire Safety Codes on an annual basis.

The purpose of the inspection is to insure compliance with all fire safety codes and related state statutes. This will also include collecting information pertaining to fire department pre-planning, photographs and contact information.

Inspections can be at any time during normal business hours. There is no charge for this service and any occupancy can be inspected at any time if a complaint is received.

All life safety violations must be corrected immediately, while others must be corrected within 30 days. Failure to correct deficiencies can result in civil and criminal prosecution, fines and penalties from $200 to $1,000 and possible imprisonment. 

Remember, violations not only endanger occupants, but may pose an unreasonable risk to firefighters responding to an incident at your location. The inspection process also focuses on minimizing your risk and liability, while preventing loss of life.
