Walk-Thru Sprinkler Review Process

Did you know that……

You can get same day approval of your permit for minor
renovations of existing Fire Sprinkler Systems?

Take advantage of the Walk-Thru Sprinkler Review Process!

In response to the needs of our customers undertaking
renovations of existing fire sprinkler systems, the Chesterfield
Fire and Life Safety Division has developed a Walk-Thru Sprinkler
Review Process.

To participate in the Walk-Thru Sprinkler Review, your project
must meet the following criteria:

1) No work performed in the
hydraulically remote area.

2) No more than five new sprinklers
added to the existing system.

3) No more than 30 sprinklers
relocated on the existing system.

4) All plans must be
“Walked Thru” by a representative of the installing
contractor. The contractor’s representative must be able to
make changes to the plan as required for approval.

5) No more
than two projects may be submitted for review on one visit,
unless approved by the Plans Review Technician.

Walk-Thru Sprinkler Reviews are conducted on Wednesdays and
Fridays between the hours of 2:00 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. The permit
application must first be filed with the Department of Building
Inspections. Once the permit fee has been paid, and the
application processed, please ask the Permit Clerk to return your
plans. Then bring the plans and a copy of the permit application
to the Fire and Life Safety Division for review. Customers will
be served on a first come/first serve basis.

“Our Goal is to be the Safest and Most Secure Community of its Size in the U.S.A.”
