Gateway Regional Medical Center- North Wing Sprinkler Project

I would like to compliment FireTech with the recent completion of a new sprinkler system install to an existing bed tower of a Medical Facility. The project required the team work of all the parties involved due to the fact that the facility was in full operation and had a lot of difficult challenges throughout the project. Andy Fritz and the site Supervisor Jack Reiter for FireTech maintained the schedule through all the obstacles that involved 7 levels consisting of the following; Administration, Sleep Lab, Adolescent & Adult Behavioral Heath, Pharmacy, Same Day Surgery Recovery, Cardio Pulmonary Rehab, records storage, 5 cross over corridors from the main hospital, two elevators, two fire exit stairways and a large mechanical room. The departments mentioned above at the facility did not experience any lost time due to everyone keeping focused with the constant awareness and ability to perform adjustments and modifications while working around the facilities daily task. Andy Fritz maintained an excellent working relationship with presenting progress reports and maintaining control of the project. Dave Zeis, FireTech Designer was always on top of the needs and adjustments required to maintain the steady work flow throughout the project for the installers. The installers Jack Reiter and Galen Harandi represented the FireTech Company in a very professional manner. FireTech should be very proud of the excellent work habits of their employees and their positive attitude maintained with the safety towards patients, visitors, Infection Control Department, and the courtesy and respect towards the staff at the facility. FireTech stands out for the contractor of choice of suppression systems and I look forward to working with them in the future.

Thank you,

Snap One Warehouse Buildout – Crosstown Logistics Center

I would like to commend FireTech LLC for the professional and timely manner exhibited on the Snap One warehouse buildout and demising wall installation. FireTech LLC insured that the work was done quickly and in accordance to the local and national codes on a project that was under aggressive time constraints. When trying to streamline a project for a client, MEP trades are tested and FireTech LLC answered on this project. I always have the utmost confidence when working with them and strive to have them handle my fire sprinkler work whenever possible. Their employees carry themselves in a professional manner with the awareness of safety for both them and the other trades on a project. I would recommend them for any contractor or project.

Sincerely,
Ken Schark
