ULC – Fire Alarm and Security Monitoring
Our customer monitoring centres are inspected and listed by Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (ULC) and offer 24/7 protection.
ULC Standards develops and publishes standards and specifications for products having a bearing on fire, life safety and security, crime prevention, energy efficiency, environmental safety, security of assets and facilities, live working and workplace safety and other areas.
There are regulations in place for how a building with a fire panel must send signals to a monitoring station. We are a proud member of UL Canada, and offer systems that meet and are installed to ULC regulations. So, the ULC Certificate will be displayed on the fire alarm monitoring panel to signal that the installation, equipment, and communications are up to the standards.

Benefits
Save Money
- Less insurance costs
Many insurance companies grant discounts for a fire and sprinkler system monitored by ULC listed companies. - Reliable system
The Critical Equipment Monitoring System is more reliable and cost-effective than using people to observe critical functions. Your business could suffer if an important piece of equipment such as a freezer, boiler, air conditioner or compressor breaks down.
Reduce Damage and False Alarms
- Constant monitoring
A sprinkler system that malfunctions can release many gallons of water into a building causing a great deal of damage. Our monitoring system minimizes damage. - Locate origin of alarm
The system’s capacity to locate the origin of an alarm allows corrective measures to be taken at the first service call.
Monitoring Offers
Fire
What to do in case of a fire?
We dispatch the fire department immediately
In many communities, fire authorities require commercial and public premises to be equipped with fire alarm systems. So, smoke detectors, sprinklers, heat detectors, pull stations and bells receive and send signals from the fire alarm panel. However, it is the fire monitoring panel, which electronically detects the fire alarm panel’s activation, and signals the Signals Receiving Centre (SRC). This way the centre helps the fire department dispatch help, on a 24-hour basis/365 days a year.
Sprinkler
Sprinkler not working?
We notify keyholders of equipment malfunctions
A sprinkler system will retard the spread of flames until the fire department arrives. However, if accidentally activated, the same sprinkler system will cause damage by releasing water into the building. The sprinkler monitoring system avoids this kind of disaster. In the event of a sprinkler malfunction, the Certified Alarms Customer Monitoring Station notifies the appropriate authorities before extensive damage is done. We monitor key zones of you sprinkler system to ensure that it is ready to work when required by making sure valves remain open and critical parts stay in working order. We can also monitor waterflow, water pressure, power loss, and temperature.
Critical Equipment
Faulty system alarm?
We notify keyholders of equipment malfunctions
Monitoring a full range of sensors to detect abnormal temperature, pressure, power, fluid flow and liquid levels. In case of trouble, Certified Alarms’ Monitoring Station notifies you of the problem so appropriate action can be taken.
