I was recently hired as a health and safety supervisor for a corporate bank in downtown Toronto. One of my first tasks was to look into our current fire safety equipment, and found it wasn't to code. A superior recommended I call Control Fire Systems for the job, and this company did a remarkable one. I ordered quite a lot of equipment/product by the end of it but I'm satisfied.

We just built a facility extension and hired Control Fire for inspections. They were the easiest people to work with and have a huge amount of industry knowledge. When setting up the expansion there was a good deal of paperwork and fire code we needed to understand. All I had to do for Control Fire was talk with them over the phone—they were as good with information as they were with equipment.

I recently ordered the A, B, C system for my office from Control Fire Systems. I just want to express my gratitude for how helpful the agents were. I got everything ordered and installed in less than two days.

We did a complete retrofit on our Mississauga facility and settled on Control Fire after learning about their reputation. They are a no nonsense supplier in the best sense of the phrase. Very careful and down to business. They worked within our retrofit schedule and had the installation done without problems. Altogether an enjoyable team to deal with.

We've been with Control Fire Systems for more than a decade and year-after-year our inspections come back clear and the equipment remains in good shape. Our fire panel had aged and we replaced it over the summer. I wanted to thank your tech team for the fair advice and the fact that you don't try to upsell unless it's necessary. I like how that Control Fire is honest and straight up. Looking forward to another ten years.

We have a large home that includes an attached workshop space and discovered a couple of months ago that our fire alarms were defective when they didn't detect a fire in an out building. Control Fire System has resolved this issue and really given reassurance to my wife and myself. We've got a very effective alert and suppression system now with extinguishers and other equipment. Thank you for being responsive and informed regarding home protection.

Control Fire System’s has a huge range of products to choose from and their techs know enough to properly explain what you do and don't need. The customer service is outstanding and they come to every job on time. Whether you've got a plant or just a large home, I highly recommend them.

I am so thankful to have found Control Fire Systems as they helped us with the setup of our fire alarm and suppression system in a very large, custom built home. They helped us tremendously by providing us with useful information and advice regarding installation and maintenance. Their staff are knowledgeable and experienced. Thank you for your support.

They are really prompt, friendly, and professional. They came out at the beginning of last week and didn’t waste any time at all. They got through the install and inspection quickly with zero errors or fuss. Just what we want in a contractor.

Control Fire System came on time for our scheduled quote on refilling our clean agent cylinder. They did a fast and efficient job and also provided cylinder hydrostatic testing and emergency cylinder recharges in case of any emergencies in the future. This is something like the fifth or sixth time we've used them and it's always gone well. We'll look forward to having CFS come back in future.

Our company has purchased a lot of equipment from Control Fire Systems. We had them install a fire control panel, fire smoke detectors and extinguishers. They're quite comprehensive and fair in describing what you need. Plus they have a warranty on their equipment and are always accessible. This is a professional choice.

by James S. Willie member | May 29, 2015

Every year, our factory has a fire extinguisher inspection to make sure all the portable extinguishers are well maintained and working. Control Fire Systems offers many portable extinguisher services such as inspection, refill and recharge, 6 year maintenance, repair and pressure testing. The company comes consistently for the inspection every year and gives a good run down of any problems with the extinguishers. They are professional and reliable.

Our warehouse has used Control Fire System’s a couple times over the past 10 years for fan air leakage and for sprinkler system inspections. They've been reliable and trustworthy and we've been able to rely on them for the jobs. Very responsive to service calls and transparent in their pricing.

by Marian Wilson member | March 10, 2015

One of our motels failed a fire alarm test in the fall. The technician from Control Fire System was very professional and experienced. He went through the guidelines and procedures and suggested replacement of most of the alarms and maintenance for the sprinklers. The work went off fairly quickly and we felt much more confident once the work was completed. We're pleased we trusted the solid reviews of this company and will be using them for the remainder of our properties.

Control Fire System’s products are great and functional. As a facility manager, it is my duty to ensure the safety of our workers since our company produces a lot of highly flammable products. Our workplace cannot risk of having a fire and our fire suppression system needs to be top notch and properly functioning. It's rather like getting a regular physical and screening medical issues -- you can't fake it. These folks have performed their oversight role perfectly and we look forward to continue working with them.

It was a pleasure working with Control Fire Systems and I will definitely come back as a returning customer should we need other products and services. I feel confident the farm is now protected.

by Mark Toomey member | November 21, 2014

We went with Kidde ADS Novec system when we did a complete factory overhaul in the spring. It was a good price although not the lowest quoted. Cutting corners wasn’t our concern. We wanted something that could be maintained for the lifetime of the facility and provides all the safeguards needed. We did the research and were really impressed Control Fire System’s presentation, planning, and testimonials. So far so good at this point and I’m happy to recommend.

by D. Sharma member | September 21, 2014

We have a retail outlet with an attached warehouse and when I came to the team two years ago I swear our fire protection dated to the seventies. Finding a firm like Control Fire Systems that could give us accurate recommendations and fair pricing was my first act of due diligence. The installation was smooth and on schedule. Thank you.

by Dwayne Rutton member | August 5, 2014

I manage maintenance at a nearly 10,000 sqf facility in the east end and Control Fire Systems is contracted to check out our systems twice annually. They’ve done some fan air testing as well as the fire systems and everything has been in order since I started here. I recommend to any plant manager getting into a regular contract situation with a reputable company like this one. It’s great piece of mind.

by Dylan Lafond member | July 22, 2014

Whenever one of our larger commercial units changes hands, expands, renovates, etc. I call in Control Fire Systems. They assess and do upgrades and repairs where necessary which actually adds to the bottom line if a sale is involved. One of the great tricks of property management is being sure you’re not getting gouged by contractors downstream and having these guys onboard has been a great relief in that regard. It’s a partnership I plan to continue to take advantage of.

by K. Jenkins member | June 12, 2014

Our factory company needed to refill our suppression system cylinders and Control Fire Services were the first one in mind as our new facility manager had used them successfully in the past. They have a 24 hour emergency system cylinder refilling which was really handy. Everything went well and they performed their task very quickly. Control Fire Services also buys and sells chemical agents which we've now gotten involved in. On the whole a great business partner.

by Paul McKenzie member | May 14, 2014

As a supervisor at our northern plant I’ve been very impressed with the services provided by Control Fire Systems. I’ve been here five years and have experience with the previous provider, who was much less reliable. We’ve had maintenance and testing of various cylinders including inspection, valve rebuilding and cylinder painting all with exceptional results. We expanded in the GTA at the beginning of the year and were happy to extend our contract with Control at the same time. Thanks for your exceptional services.

by Fred D. Bayless member | March 27, 2014

This company does engineering at its finest. I couldn’t believe how well integrated the Novec system was considering our space is about half the size it ought to be. I will definitely be advising the second plant consider the same fire suppression system in place of the old one.

by Andrew Fletcher member | November 22, 2013

I opened up a new branch of my business this year and had to install a fire control panel at the new location. We’d worked with CFS years ago and called them again for this job. They had all the specs of our older system and found an option which was similar, compatible with the extra smoke detectors we had and didn't require retraining for our facilities staff. This saved us a great deal of expense and hassle.

by Ryan T. member | August 23, 2013

Dealt with them a few times over the past few years for control panels on our shop floor. Always found them reliable and techs did a good job installing. Hard to compare prices since all the systems are different, but they probably aren't the cheapest. Still – we haven’t had a problem and they've been pretty responsive for service calls.
