Fire safety regulations are constantly evolving! 2025 brings several key updates to national and regional ULC standards and fire codes that may impact your building, facility, or job site.
At Everguard Fire Safety, we’re committed to keeping our clients protected, compliant, and informed. Whether you’re managing a small business or a large industrial site, these changes may affect how your fire protection systems are installed, maintained, and inspected.
What’s New?
Here are a few notable areas where code updates and new ULC standards are making an impact:
- Fire Extinguishers: New service and replacement guidelines, including labeling and hydrostatic testing requirements.
- Foam Suppression Systems: Increasing pressure to phase out fluorinated (PFAS-containing) foams in favor of environmentally safe alternatives.
- Emergency Lighting: More stringent testing intervals and documentation requirements for exit and emergency lighting systems.
- Suppression for Specialized Equipment: Updated standards for vehicle-mounted and special hazard systems in industries such as forestry, mining, and energy.
