The inspection focuses on four primary areas of protection including fire detection, and suppression systems, means of egress, electrical safety and other general fire safety criteria. The purpose of the ordinance is to ensure that built-in fire and emergency systems are properly working for timely notification and early fire suppression mitigation to safeguard occupants and property. The ordinance does not apply to private homes. Examples include, but are not limited to industrial facilities, commercial facilities, retail businesses, banks, lodging and treatment facilities, and other facilities used for retail, wholesale, educational and day-care purposes and places of worship. The ordinance requires regular fire inspections of all commercial structures in Manheim Township.
