Fire Alarm Monitoring in Las Vegas

Sting Alarm provides 24/7 fire alarm monitoring for businesses in Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, and across the valley. When your fire alarm detects smoke, heat, or sprinkler flow, the signal goes to our monitoring center and the fire department is notified, even when no one is in the building. We are a licensed Nevada fire protection contractor, so the same local team can also install, inspect, and service your fire alarm system.

What fire alarm monitoring covers

A fire can grow from a spark to a serious fire in minutes, and a fire alarm that only sounds inside an empty building does not call for help. Monitoring connects your fire alarm control panel to our monitoring center so every signal is seen and acted on, day or night. We monitor three kinds of fire signals:

• Alarm signals. A fire condition, such as smoke detection, heat detection, a pulled pull station, or sprinkler water flow. The fire department is notified.
• Supervisory signals. A condition that could keep the system from working when needed, such as a closed sprinkler valve. You are notified so it gets corrected.
• Trouble signals. A problem with the system itself, such as a power loss, low battery, or communication failure. You are notified so it can be serviced.

Monitoring is a core part of Life Safety Fire Protection, and many commercial properties are required to have it based on occupancy type, local fire code, and the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

How Sting Alarm handles fire alarm monitoring

Wireless mesh radio, no landline required

Your fire alarm system needs a reliable way to reach our monitoring center. Sting Alarm uses AES-IntelliNet wireless mesh radio communicators across the Las Vegas area. In a mesh network, each radio can relay signals for others, so a signal has more than one path to reach the receiver. Your business gets 24/7 fire alarm monitoring without a landline phone requirement, and without the disruptions that come with aging phone lines. Learn how our private radio network works on the StingNet AES-IntelliNet radio alarm monitoring page.

Our monitoring center, 24 hours a day

Fire signals are received and handled by our UL-listed monitoring center around the clock, every day of the year. Alarm signals are dispatched to the fire department, and supervisory and trouble signals are passed to you or your designated contacts so problems get fixed before they turn into a failed inspection or a system that does not work when it matters.

A licensed fire contractor behind the monitoring

Monitoring is only as good as the system sending the signals. Sting Alarm holds Nevada Fire Protection License C41-0090059 and Nevada Fire Marshal licenses E292, F602, and G1209. Our technicians inspect fire protection equipment according to NFPA standards, AHJ requirements, and the Nevada State Fire Marshal. That means one company can design and install your system, monitor it, and handle the inspection and maintenance that keeps it compliant. We also sell, install, and service Mircom fire alarm equipment.

Taking over an existing system

Already have a fire alarm panel but not happy with your current provider? In many cases we can connect your existing system to our monitoring center. We evaluate the panel, its communication paths, and its inspection records, then recommend what, if anything, needs to change.

Who needs fire alarm monitoring

Monitored fire protection matters most where a fire would hurt people, operations, or compliance. We monitor fire alarm systems for:

• Office buildings and multi-tenant commercial properties
• Retail stores and restaurants
• Warehouses, distribution centers, and industrial buildings
• Medical offices and healthcare facilities
• Schools, daycares, and campuses
• Hotels, casinos, and high-occupancy venues
• HOAs, apartments, and multi-family properties

When a fire happens, the damage is rarely limited to the building. Operations can shut down, tenants are displaced, and inspections and compliance follow-up take time. Monitoring speeds up the response and gives you a dependable record of system activity. Want to know whether your current setup meets local requirements?

Choosing a fire alarm monitoring company

Not every alarm company is a fire alarm monitoring company. Fire signals carry life-safety and code obligations that burglar alarms do not, so check these before you sign:

• A licensed fire protection contractor, not only a low-voltage or security license. In Nevada that means a C41 fire protection license plus State Fire Marshal licensing for the people doing the work.
• A UL-listed monitoring center that receives, verifies, and dispatches on fire signals 24/7, with a documented process for trouble and supervisory signals, not only alarms.
• A communication path that does not depend on a phone line. Cellular or a private radio mesh such as StingNet keeps signals moving when copper lines are cut or retired.
• Coordination with your fire authority. The company should handle the paperwork the authority having jurisdiction expects at inspection time, and keep the signal records that prove the system was monitored.
• Commercial alarm monitoring under one account. If the same company can monitor your fire alarm and your intrusion alarm, you get one bill, one point of contact, and one service schedule.

Sting Alarm meets every one of those points in Las Vegas, and we can usually take over monitoring of an existing panel without replacing it.

One vendor for security and fire monitoring

Your fire alarm and your security system can be monitored by the same team. Sting Alarm provides 24/7 security and fire monitoring from our monitoring center, and we install and service business security systems, video surveillance, and access control alongside your fire alarm. One vendor means one point of contact, one schedule for service, and systems designed to work together.
