The Charlotte Fire Department conducts inspections at a frequency mandated by the North Carolina Fire Code. So that you may be prepared for your next scheduled inspection, we have developed a checklist [SELF INSPECTION CHECKLIST (2).pdf (19k)] that you may use as a self inspection guide in an effort to minimize, and perhaps even eliminate any violations that are documented during your next visit by a fire inspector. Keep in mind that this checklist is not intended to indicate the only violations we look for or routinely find, but violations that may be common at any type of occupancy. Some of the information contained in the document may apply to your facility, and some may not.

If you have any questions, or would like to speak with your area inspector, call the Fire prevention Bureau at 704-336-2101.
